Join us at the Stanley Museum of Art on January 12, 2025, at 12:30pm for our Sundays with the Docents tour where Stanley docents create unique tours to share with our audiences throughout the year.
Form and Purpose will be led by Docent Jill Maahs who will look at the tradition of objects from the African continent. The tour will cover the beauty of these objects, as well their uses, from everyday items to the sacred.
Jill Maahs is a graduate of the University of Iowa with a BA in Art and Art History. She also received a master’s in teaching from Drake University. Jill taught Art in central Iowa and in Casablanca, Morocco. The University of Iowa is where her love of art and museums began as a docent at the former museum on North Riverside Drive.
This tour is part of the Sundays with the Docents program. Walk-ins are welcome on the tour, but using the sign up is strongly recommended as tours are capped at 20 participants.
