Savor The Tastes And Sip The Terroir Of The Driftless

TUESDAYS, 5-7PM | JULY 5 - SEPTEMBER 6

MMAM is bringing back the popular and beloved Mississippi Sippin.  A perennial summer favorite, this ten week series is our opportunity to keep the museum galleries open late and your chance to bring friends to taste the terroir of the Driftless region.  Every Tuesday in July and August, we’ll serve a curated selection of spirited and spirit free-beverages riverside. 

This year’s series is inspired by the exhibition currently on display, Sonja Peterson: What the Trade Winds Brought. Explore Sonja Peterson’s work which casts native plants clashing with invading cultures, explores historical events merging with present-day environmental dilemmas and amplifies how the effects of globalization are intertwined with commerce, consciousness, and food systems.
