Join us May 15th from 4pm to 5pm for a family-friendly tour of “Medieval to Metal: The Art & Evolution Of The Guitar.”
Please RSVP by emailing rsvp@wkmuseum.org.
Join us in the Legard and United Company Galleries as we showcase the artistic development of the guitar. Developed by The National GUITAR Museum (NGM), it features 40 objects, ranging from the intricately inlaid Moorish oud and six-foot long Renaissance theorbo on to the modern Italian design of the Eko and transparent acrylic body of California’s BC Rich guitars. Spanning centuries of design and craftsmanship, the exhibition takes visitors through the history of an object that is one of the most recognizable items on the planet.
Prepared by the National GUITAR Museum. This exhibition is part of WKMA’s McGlothlin Exhibition Series and is sponsored by the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino of Bristol, and Matt Smith Realty.
