[Madison Brown, Ph.D. @__sophisticat]

I’m delighted to announce “A Little Truth: Fact and Fiction in Family Photography,” a show I’m curating @NUBlockMuseum that displays anonymous photos and artworks that integrate family photos to explore what we cannot and, sometimes, do not want to see.

We remember composer and lyricist Stephen Sondheim with @amhistorymuseum's Robert Weingarten portrait. It includes Georges Seurat's "A Sunday on La Grande Jatte"—inspiration for "Sunday in the Park with George"—and a Tony Award, which Sondheim won more of than any other composer.
