Some of the featured artists--in addition to the eponymous three--include Paul Cézanne, Marc Chagall, and Gabriele Münter. Kelsie delves into the many opportunities to engage with the exhibition. Museum goers can attend art history lectures, evening tours, workshops, a concert given by pianist Leslie Amper, and more.
