Jan Shrem and Maria Manetti Shrem Museum of Art

Celebrate fall season with two powerful new exhibitions:

  • “OJO” Julio César Morales: An expansive midcareer survey features the Bay Area artist’s new and recent works exploring the U.S.-Mexico border as a lived human experience. Bridging past and future to reflect on the present, Morales draws from real-life narratives, found materials and detritus of crossings to traverse the border’s geopolitical history.
  • Breath(e): Toward Climate and Social Justice: This groundbreaking exhibition, organized by the Hammer Museum at UCLA, brings together works focused on climate change by artists, scientists and activists whose practices encompass photography, multimedia, large-scale sculptures, painting and more. 

Featured Program

2 PM: Engaging exhibition introductions by curators and Q&A with exhibiting artist Julio César Morales.

Join us for a lively afternoon as we celebrate the opening of our dynamic exhibitions, “OJO” Julio Cesar Morales and Breath(e): Toward Climate and Social Justice. Dive into exhibition themes during engaging curatorial introductions, then let the music move you with a DJ set inspired by the vibrant pulse of the U.S.–Mexico border. Make eco-friendly art, explore thought-provoking artwork in our galleries, hear from artists and curators, and connect with community changemakers.
