Join Museum on Main for “A Discussion with …” documentary street photographer Tao Guan at 7 p.m. this Saturday (Dec. 5) on the museum’s YouTube Live Channel.
Participants will watch a slideshow of the 69 images that make up the museum’s current exhibit, “The Pleasanton Ones,” and they will hear from the artist himself and be able to ask him questions live through email and YouTube chat features.
“We were so excited to be open and showcasing Guan’s work,” museum education director Sarah Schaefer said, but on the eve of the exhibit opening, the museum had to reclose its doors.
“We really want our community to see Guan’s amazing work and see how together it documents the spirit of this community through its people, events and landscapes,” she added. “We hope people will tune in to this virtual ‘Discussion with …’ program to hear from the artist and see all 69 images included in the exhibit.”
Guan is a self-taught photographer with natural talent, who has been capturing moments in the life of the Pleasanton community since he moved to town in 2014.
Guan said he sees Pleasanton as “a family that keeps on loving and keeps on growing.”
