SUMMARY:A Full-Day Magic of Modern Art Experience at the Whitney Biennial
DESCRIPTION:Robyn Jamison\, is coming to New York to lead a full-day Magic of Modern Art Experience at the Whitney Biennial 2026 on Sunday\, June 7th. People rave about this experience!  \nRobyn is an artist and the author of The Magic of Modern Art—How to Love Modern & Contemporary Art. She facilitates events that transform people’s relationship with modern and contemporary art.  \nShe doesn’t lecture or explain the art. Instead\, Robyn guides people to experience it directly\, so they reawaken their natural affinity for art and see the world through new eyes. Modern and contemporary art become moving\, meaningful\, and surprisingly accessible.  \nHere’s a short video by Hilary Burns\, a popular podcaster\, that will give you a sense of what The Magic of Modern Art Experience provides.  \nHere’s what the day will include: \nWe’ll begin with coffee and a guided conversation (at a café near or inside the Whitney) that surfaces the subtle assumptions and mental chatter that tend to interfere with our appreciation of contemporary art. Once those are identified and dispelled\, people often find themselves relating to the art with more curiosity\, openness\, and confidence. \nFrom there\, we’ll enter the Biennial and spend time with one or two works—slowly and in silence—with gentle guidance from Robyn. There will be opportunities to share reflections after spending time with each piece.  \nThere will be a break for independent exploration\, and we’ll reconvene in the afternoon for further focused engagement. We’ll close the day with dinner and final reflections.  \nI hope you can join us for what promises to be a rich and memorable day with some of the most exciting contemporary art being made today. \nThis is an opportunity you don’t want to miss.  \nA few practical details:\n • You’ll purchase your own admission to the Whitney\n • You’ll cover your own food and beverages\n • Robyn’s fee for the full-day experience is $250 per person

SUMMARY:Day of Magic of Modern Art Experiences Chicago
DESCRIPTION:Cloud Gate\, affectionately known as “The Bean” \n  \nI’m excited to invite you to a special day of Magic of Modern Art Experiences taking place in Chicago on Saturday\, September 12. \nI will be leading two separate experiences: one in the morning at the Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago and another in the afternoon at the Art Institute of Chicago. You’re welcome to attend either one or make a day of it and join us for both. \nThe Magic of Modern Art Experience isn’t a lecture or a traditional museum tour. Rather than explaining the art or telling you what to think\, Robyn introduces you to new ways to experience art. \nThe entry point is to begin to uncover and dispel the assumptions and mental chatter that can stand between you and the art. Then\, free to explore the art more openly\, you’ll immerse yourself in two works—one you might ordinarily avoid and another to which you are naturally drawn. Through guided\, in-depth exploration\, you may discover that appreciating modern and contemporary art is both easier and deeper than you imagined. \nPeople frequently leave these experiences with a new level of art appreciation—seeing not only art\, but the world around them\, through new eyes. Whether you already love contemporary art\, find it challenging\, or simply want to experience it more deeply\, you are warmly invited. No knowledge of art is necessary—only curiosity. \nSaturday\, September 12 \nMorning Experience\nMuseum of Contemporary Art Chicago\n10:00 a.m.–approximately 12:30 p.m. \nLunch break \nThose attending the morning experience are also invited to join us for lunch—we’d love to have you. \nAfternoon Experience\nArt Institute of Chicago\n2:00–approximately 4:30 p.m. \nCost \n\nMorning or afternoon—one museum experience: $75\nFull Day—Both Experiences — $125\n\nPayment may be made in advance by credit card using the appropriate QR code or link below\, or with cash in person.  \nFull Day—Both Experiences — $125 \nRegister for the Full Day — $125 \n \n  \nMorning Experience at the MCA — $75 \nRegister for the Morning Experience — $75 \n \n  \nAfternoon Experience at the Art Institute — $75 \nRegister for the Afternoon Experience — $75 \n \n  \nFollowing the afternoon experience\, we’ll gather for dinner. Everyone who attends either or both museum experiences is welcome to join us. \nPlease note that each participant is responsible for museum admission\, lunch\, dinner\, beverages\, and any other food purchases. \nYou can also pre-purchase Robyn’s book\, The Magic of Modern Art—How to Love Modern & Contemporary Art\, for the special price of $27.95 using the QR code or link below. \nPurchase Robyn’s Book —  $27.95 \nPurchase the Book — $27.95 \n \n  \nFor those interested in a more intimate experience: Robyn will also be available on Sunday\, September 13\, to lead a Magic of Modern Art VIP Experience for one to six people. This luxurious\, highly personalized full-day immersion is thoughtfully curated around the participants and includes guided\, in-depth exploration of a limited number of works\, allowing ample time to engage with the art—and with one another—at a deeper level.  \nThe day concludes at a fine restaurant\, where participants can share and further solidify the experience. Please contact Robyn directly at Robyn@MagicofModernArt.com for availability\, pricing\, and additional details. \nWould you like a glimpse of what the experience can provide? \n\nHilary Burns’s short introduction to The Magic of Modern Art \n  \n\nHear Tammy Bonin describe how her Magic of Modern Art Experience shifted her relationship with art—and how that shift extended far beyond art. \n  \nCurious to learn more about The Magic of Modern Art Experiences? \n \nLearn more about the Experiences \nI would love to have you join us for this rich and memorable day. Each experience offers a complete opportunity to encounter art in an entirely new way. You’re welcome to attend either one\, but I especially encourage you to join us for both and deepen the discovery across two extraordinary museums.
