Join Durham Young Professionals and guests on Thursday November 12, as they have the exciting opportunity to be among the first to view the exhibition "Big Shots: Andy Warhol Polaroids” at the Nasher Museum of Art at Duke University.

"Big Shots: Andy Warhol Polaroids" provides insight into the artist who sought to capture the world like a camera. The exhibition includes about 250 Polaroids and 75 silver gelatin black-and-white prints taken by Warhol from 1969 to 1986, many of them on public view for the first time.

In addition to the Warhol exhibit, you will have the opportunity to experience "Picasso and the Allure of Language" which examines Pablo Picasso's lifelong relationship with writers and the many ways language affected his work. While you peruse the galleries, you’ll be able to network with your fellow DYPs and you’ll have access to a DYP Only reception with light appetizers and a cash bar from 5:30-7:00 p.m. 

But that’s not all! 

As part of this special young professional event, you're also invited to continue the fun at a reception from 7-9 p.m. hosted by the Nasher Student Advisory Board.  The reception will feature gallery talks, light appetizers, live entertainment and the cash bar will stay open. You’ll even have the opportunity to create your own Warhol inspired pop art piece.

This is an event that you won’t want to miss, and space is limited and filling up fast! Tickets are $15 for members and $20 for non-members.  Admission includes gallery tickets and both receptions.
