Art and Life are undeniably intertwined, and never more so than in the decade that was the 1970s. While contemplation of the 1960s may conjure up images of turbulent social change, it was during the next decade that American society began to feel the impact of civil rights legislation, the women’s liberation movement, the sexual revolution, and so much more. These societal changes are reflected in the works of art celebrated in Aspects of American Painting from the 1970s. In conjunction with Aspects of American Painting from the 1970s, the Ball State University Museum of Art is transformed for kid-friendly tours and hands-on activities emphasizing the treasures and highlights in the collection from the 1970s. In conjunction with the Ball State University Art Education Club.
