Events

Join us for a coversation with Director of Curatorial Affairs, Derrick Cartwright, Ph.D. and conceptual artist, Margaret Noble as they discuss the Timken's summer exhibition, Drift, on view July 15-September 6, 2026. Drift, an installation by Noble, brings together sculpture, sound, and moving images to explore the ways in which space and perception are experienced. Drawing inspiration from François Boucher's Lovers in a Park (1758), Noble reinterprets Rococo ideals by introducing motion and layered context through reverse glass animation, revealing and disrupting the painting's serene, ornamental narrative. Event guests will receive a sneak-peek of Noble's installation before Drift opens to the public.
