Focal Points Tour: Art in the Elements

Thursday
June 19, 2025
10:00 am-11:00 am

Elements of art or art in the elements? That’s just what the CMA has going on outside on Boyd Plaza. Come explore this exciting gathering place designed to welcome the Columbia community. Learn some of the plaza’s interesting history before taking a closer look at a few of the striking sculptures. Focal Points is a series of gallery talks featuring topics and themes near and dear to the hearts of docents and staff. In the event of rain, this tour will be canceled. Free. 

Generous support provided by Art Bridges Foundation’s Access for All program.
