On Friday, January 27, 2023, the Minnesota Marine Art Museum (MMAM) celebrated the opening of three new exhibitions by Ian Hanesworth, Hitomi Hosono, and Kienen Imao, all under the theme of Flora, and the debut of MMAM’s new literary arts gallery, Waking Worlds: Wondrous Reads for Curious Minds. The evening featured a bar presented by Sanborn Canoe Company, a staged social panel hosted by curator Andy DuCett, with Aimee Nezhukumatathil, Fumi Nakamura, Mary Cassanova, Nick Wroblewski, Ian Hanesworth, and Marlena Myles. The celebration was topped off by a performance from The Nunnery, a dancehall set from DJ Rhumpshaker, and live painting by The Joy Labs.
This project is presented by the Minnesota Marine Art Museum, with support in part from our Board of Directors, the Elizabeth Calendar King Foundation, Gundersen Medical Foundation, Winona Foundation, the Winona Community Foundation, Liz Strand Cimini and other generous sustaining contributions from foundations, corporations, individuals, members and volunteers.
