Art Talk

Ellen Noel Art Museum 4909 E. University, Odessa, TX, United States

Join us for an engaging evening at the Ellen Noël Art Museum's Art Talk! This event is a wonderful opportunity for art enthusiasts to come together and delve into the mysteries of a particular painting as they enhance their visual literacy skills. Gather with friends and fellow art lovers as we interpret, comprehend, and appreciate the art in ways that advance thinking, decision-making, communication and learning. Art Talk is all about exploring different perspectives and sparking lively conversation. Whether you’re an art aficionado or just curious, share your thoughts and insights in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere. We go through a three question process that allows visitors to share their perceptions while viewing a piece of art from our Permanent Collection. Come be a part of Art Talk at the Ellen Noël Art Museum and experience art in a whole new way. We can't wait to see you there!
