Bonnard Salon

Created for Bonnard’s Worlds, the Bonnard Salon is an intimate space where guests can more deeply engage with artist Pierre Bonnard. Materials from The Phillips Collection’s Library and Archives showcase the museum’s special relationship with Bonnard over several decades and give insight into how his paintings were acquired and exhibited. Bonnard Salon talks and workshops forefront the artist’s work and interests and take place on Fridays from 12–1 pm.
