Join Simon Dinnerstein in the gallery for an informal conversation regarding The Lasting World. Take this special opportunity to meet and engage the artist with questions sparked by the most intriguing paintings from his five-decade career. 

Classical Tahoe and the Nevada Museum of Art present a one-of-a-kind event during the month of Artown that celebrates art, life, and the bonds of family.

“A Conversation on the Mysteries of Art and Family” is a discussion between acclaimed musician Simone Dinnerstein and her father, visual artist Simon Dinnerstein. Focusing on the intersection of music and the fine arts, the Dinnersteins will explore how art becomes a portal for finding inner and mystical direction. Following this discussion between father and daughter, Simone Dinnerstein will perform selections from Bach’s Goldberg Variations. The evening begins with an intimate reception and exhibition preview. This special event celebrates the opening of The Lasting World: Simon Dinnerstein and The Fulbright Triptych.
