Please join us for The Museum of Modern Art’s bimonthly program for individuals who are Deaf or hard of hearing. Each program includes a sign language–interpreted, private gallery talk focusing on one of MoMA’s exhibitions, along with a wine and cheese reception.

In March, we will explore the exhibition Guillermo del Toro: Crafting Pinocchio. Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio is an innovative reinterpretation of Carlo Collodi’s 1883 children’s novel, now set in Fascist-era Italy. Together we will discuss the craft and process behind the filmmaker’s first stop-motion animation film, with staff members from the departments of Film and Conservation.

Interpreting MoMA is offered free of charge. Space is limited and advance registration is required.

For more information or to register, please email [email protected] or call Access Programs at 212-408-6447.
