… curious African masks, and much more.

The museum also plays host to some epic international exhibitions. Currently there is some Dale Chihuly in the Glass Pavilion, award-winning illustrations from children’s books, typographic-charged works in Word Play (including an Ed Ruscha who is one of my all-time faves), and LitGraphic: The World of the Graphic Novel (runs from through January 3rd).

The TMA extends open hours on Friday until 10pm for their FREE “It’s Friday!” programming. Check the calendar for tours, live music, etc.–it’s a great date night and the cafe is open until 7:30 on Fridays in case you’re feeling peckish.
