Comprising more than one hundred vintage prints in both black and white and color, Evelyn Hofer: Eyes on the City, the artist's first major museum exhibition in the United States in over 50 years, is organized around those publications.

The Bank of America Museums on Us program offers FREE weekend general admission to Bank of America and Merrill credit and debit cardholders, including Morris Museum of Art.

School may be out, but there are still plenty of opportunities to learn something new; use the Bank of America Museums on Us Location Finder tool to search for an attraction nearby.

Currently on exhibition at the Morris Museum of Art is The View from Here: Three Master Painters Consider the Landscape: Recent Work by John Cleaveland, Julyan Davis, and Philip Juras

Highlighting the work of three consummately skilled contemporary artists, this exhibition addresses the distinctly different ways that each of them views the subject of landscape. They have this in common with landscape painters of the past: underlying their work are themes related as much to self-discovery and self-exploration as they are to the examination of topography.
