So Many Songs We Have Yet To Play: Gifts of Donna MacMillan

This exhibition celebrates Donna MacMillan's numerous contributions to the museum over the years and especially recognizes her recent donation of 68 objects. Characterized by incredible breadth, her donations span a wide range of mediums, including painting, sculpture, prints, photographs, video, and electronic art. She has gifted objects by both established art icons and emerging artists, works of simple beauty as well as those both thought-provoking and challenging.

The significant impact of Donna’s donations to the museum's collection makes her one of our most influential single donors. Visitors now have the opportunity to witness the depth and diversity of her contributions and experience the legacy of this most dedicated supporter who has added so much to the beauty and richness of our collection. Several works have been exhibited often, others have rarely been seen, and there are so many songs we have yet to play.
