Joelle, the Museum’s Network Administrator, tests cellular signal from our rooftop.
When the Elizabeth A. Sackler Center for Feminist Art opens in March 2007, we will be delivering the Center’s audio guide content via cell phone. Problem is, we don’t get cell service within our building’s very thick walls. By installing several antennas on the roof, we can grab existing outdoor cellular signal and bring it directly into the galleries.
Luckily we get a strong enough signal up here to funnel it inside, so there will be no dropped calls as our visitors listen to The Dinner Party audio tour.

Happy New Year, everyone! The opening date for the Elizabeth A. Sackler Center for Feminist Art is set for March 23, 2007.
With the Grand Opening, The Dinner Party by Judy Chicago will be restored to public view on a permanent basis. Widely regarded as the first epic feminist artwork, the monumental installation functions as a symbolic history of women in Western civilization.
In celebration of the opening, the Museum presents Global Feminisms, the first international exhibition exclusively dedicated to feminist art from 1990 to the present. The show consists of work by approximately eighty women artists from around the world and includes work in all media - painting, sculpture, photography, film, video, installation, and performance.
Pharaohs, Queens and Goddesses will inaugurate the Center’s biographical gallery. Presented in tandem with Judy Chicago’s The Dinner Party, the exhibition is dedicated to powerful female pharaohs, queens, and goddesses from Egyptian history.
