Family Album | Black & Sterri in conversation with Barbara Hitchcock

The Griffin is pleased to present Judith Black & Bjorn Sterri in a panel discussion, led by curator Barbara Hitchcock. Family Album is on the walls of the museum in Winchester through 26 February, 2023.

American Judith Black and Norwegian Bjørn Sterri zealously photograph their family members day after day, year after year, seeking to record the ordinary as well as the significant times in their lives. Through their eyes, we witness an unvarnished chronicle of family, a narrative that can be passed from one generation to another.

Join us online on Thursday February 9th at 2 pm Eastern / 11 am Pacific / 8pm Norway

This event is FREE to Griffin Museum members. $10 for Non Members. Interested in Membership and its benefits? See more about what the Griffin offers here.
