We have long recognized the amazing gem we have in the Salvador Dali Museum. We are thrilled to see that USA Today and its panel of experts and readers have agreed. The Dali is one of 10 art museums selected in USA Today’s Readers’ Choice 2025. Kudos to the Dali team!
The St Pete Science Festival is looking for volunteers and exhibitors to participate in the February 7 School Day and February 8 Public Festival. This regional celebration of the wonders of hands-on science, technology, engineering, art, and math (STEAM) is a fun event for all ages.
Kudos to our friends at the USF College of Marine Science for hosting their third Art and Science night. They welcomed artists to explore the marine science labs, do hands on experiments, and talk to local scientists about their work. Their goal was to inspire new pieces of art which will be showcased in an exhibit in early 2025.
The Dali Museum is once again leveraging innovative technology to engage the audience in a deeper understanding of Dali. A recent NPR profile highlighted: Ask Dalí, a new installation based on a copy of Dalí's iconic Lobster Telephone sculpture, allows visitors to pick up the crustacean-shaped receiver, ask a question, and hear Dalí's response. The artist's voice, speaking in heavily-accented English, is made possible through generative artificial intelligence. The artist's AI voice was trained on voice samples taken from archival interviews Dalí did in English over his career.
