The one-night-only event starts at 7:00PM in the gallery, which opens at 6:00PM for guests to explore beforehand. The 45-minute performance, which dramatizes Wood’s life, will be followed by a discussion of the artist’s work and his 80 years of impact since his passing. The audience will learn about Grant Wood’s life and legacy, including the story of American Gothic, Wood’s most recognizable painting. “He’s got a hundred surprising stories to tell.” Danna Kehm, CEO of PACE, said about Miller’s depth of knowledge. “He’s researched and read all the books. He genuinely loves the artist, and knows small details that bring Grant Wood’s story to life.”
