Founded in 1989 by a group of artists, Day With(out) Art is an international day of action and awareness in response to the AIDS crisis. The program will include a film screening of shorts commissioned by Visual AIDS in the McEvoy Auditorium. Attendees can join curator-led tours of the exhibition Felix Gonzalez-Torres: Always to Return or interact with gallery educators and specific artworks in the galleries. The Kogod Courtyard will host art activities, a table from Whitman Walker Health, an oral history listening station and the DC Public Library Book Bike. Additionally, the American University Humanities Truck will be parked outside the museum on G Street.
