Iris and B. Gerald Cantor Auditorium, 3rd Floor

The Brooklyn Museum hosts its tenth annual Women in the Arts luncheon, honoring Yoko Ono. The program in the Iris and B. Gerald Cantor Auditorium will be followed by a reception and luncheon in the Beaux-Arts Court.



Yoko Ono is a multimedia artist whose thought-provoking work challenges people’s understanding of art and the world around them.
