Curator Talk Series: Frances F. Denny’s Major Arcana

Included with admission
Location: Forbes Gallery

There were no witches in 17th-century Salem. But there are today. Who is a witch now and what does the practice of witchcraft mean? PEM associate curator Lydia Gordon explores contemporary photographer Frances F. Denny’s portrait series Major Arcana: Portraits of Witches in America, which was recently on view in PEM’s The Salem Witch Trials: Reckoning and Reclaiming exhibition and is currently on display at the New York Historical Society.

Our exclusive Curator Talk Series takes place this October and showcases aspects of our collection in darkly mysterious ways.
