Calendar & Events

Please join OMAM Guest Curator Ruth Grim on a special day trip to St. Pete for guided tours of the Dali Museum and the Museum of the American Arts & Crafts Movement. This visit to Florida's west coast follows up on Ruth's recent lectures at OMAM on Art Nouveau and the history behind the infamous banana taped to a wall. Our chartered motorcoach (with onboard restroom) will depart from OMAM promptly at 8:00am and will return to OMAM around 7:00pm. Ruth will provide history and commentary on these collections, lead discussion topics about modern art, and provide previews of upcoming OMAM lectures on the bus trips to and from the museum. Other opportunities will include lunch at the MAACM and Dali Alive 360 (additional ticket required) in the Dali Dome that immerses the viewer visually in the artist’s surreal landscapes.

The trip registration fee ($40 Museum/Guild members; $50 non-members) includes transportation and Ruth's discussion during the ride. Participants are responsible for paying for their own meals, admissions, and other expenses. Since MAACM and the Dali are both part of the North American Reciprocal Museum (NARM) Association, our premier-level members will be able show their current membership card and receive free admission. Those without NARM benefits will need to pay admission upon arrival (MAACM is $25 for adults; Dali is $32 for adults). Trip registration is non-refundable as seats are limited.
