Donors at the Benefactor-level and above are invited to an exclusive evening viewing of Calder-Picasso. To complement the on-site viewing, donors will enjoy a three-course dinner and wine pairing, provided by McCalls Catering & Events, delivered straight to your home. Deliveries are scheduled to arrive between the hours of 1 and 4 pm on Wednesday, April 21. The deadline to reserve this complimentary offering is Monday, April 12.In accordance with safety protocols, advance registration is required for exhibition viewing.

Calder-Picasso is the first major museum exhibition to explore the artistic relationship between Alexander Calder and Pablo Picasso, two of the most innovative and influential artists of the 20th century. In more than 100 paintings, sculptures, drawings, and photographs—including many iconic works—the exhibition presents a compelling visual conversation centered around the artists’ exploration of the void, or the absence of space, which both Calder and Picasso defined from the figure through to abstraction.With questions about this evening viewing, email specialevents@famsf.org
