2024-10-20 14:30, 2024-10-19 19:30 | Midland Community Theatre, 2000 W. Wadley, Midland, 79705, United States
Placed in the Deep South in 1948, Driving Miss Daisy follows a rich, sharp-tongued Jewish widow of seventy-two and her newly appointment chauffeur, Hoke, who is thoughtful black man. Miss Daisy immediately regards Hoke with disdain and who, in turn, is not impressed with his employer’s patronizing tone and, he believes, her latent prejudice. Will they be able to overcome their differences?

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!
