The McMaster Museum of Art is reaching out into the community with a pair of exhibitions by alumnus Brad Isaacs.

One show will be at the Museum on campus and a complementary second show will be held off-site in the Carnegie Gallery’s sleek new Atrium addition, TBA Artspace, in Dundas.

“I’m delighted to announce our new partnership with the Carnegie Gallery and this opportunity to bring Brad Isaacs’ impressive body of work to a wider Hamilton audience,” says Museum Director/Chief Curator Carol Podedworny. “And this is just the first of a number of McMaster Museum of Art in the Community projects.”

The Museum is also sponsoring Brad Isaacs’ Artist’s Talk – in partnership with the Hamilton Arts Council – to be held at an undetermined, off-campus location later this year.
