The Object LIVE! at Minneapolis Institute of Arts

Minneapolis, MN

Mia’s award-winning podcast, The Object, tells the surprising, true stories behind the art and artists in the collection. Called “playful, thoughtful, and elegant” and “on par with This American Life” by critics, it’s the museum as you’ve never heard it before. The Object LIVE! is a new series of live taping events—everything listeners love about the podcast brought to life on stage.

This live taping of Mia’s award-winning podcast The Object, hosted by Tim Gihring, features musical guest Dessa, fun quizzes and prizes, curator conversation, and of course storytelling. All about humor in art, surrealism, and Mia’s beloved Aphrodisiac Telephone by Salvador Dalí—on his 121st birthday! It’s “Your Lobster is Ringing!” Take the call, bring your mother (it’s Mothers Day, folks!) and join us for an afternoon to remember.
