What's Happening at the TMA



Reflections on Water On View Through May 4

This winter season, escape into a nautical narrative of American history and maritime adventure. Reflections on Water in American Painting – The Arthur J. Phelan Collection combines 50 paintings that together tell a unique story of the country’s maritime growth from the grand sailing ships of the U.S. Navy and the Mississippi river boats of the Mark Twain era to the more contemporary pleasure of leisure time spent by the sea.

Visitors will enjoy a one-of-a-kind opportunity to meet the collector on the exhibition's opening day. December 9, at 11:00 a.m., Mr. Phelan will lead a Gallery Talk and discuss the stunning works on view.

Reflections on Water in American Painting is presented by Exhibits Development Group, USA.
