Enjoy a dynamic evening at The San Diego Museum of Art with a full suite of interactive activities, captivating performances, delicious food, refreshing beverages, and other enchantments celebrating the opening of special exhibition Eduardo Chillida: Convergence.

This special Art Party celebrates the Basque region of Spain as well as other facets of Spanish culture and opens Eduardo Chillida: Convergence, a brand-new exhibition of work by Basque artist Eduardo Chillida. Regarded as one of the foremost sculptors of the twentieth century, this exhibition showcases Chillida’s profound attunement to the landscape as well as his sensitive handling of materials associated with his native Basque Country, including iron, steel, and oak.

Chillida’s sculptures join elements of nature—such as earth, sea, wind, light, and space—with aspects of culture, including music, poetry, philosophy, and architecture. The event is an indoor/outdoor experience with an open-air activity terrace in addition to festivities in the Museum’s rotunda and gallery spaces. Come dressed to impress in your most festive themed attire. You won’t want to miss this multi-sensory evening at the Museum!
