Grammy Award–winning soprano Angel Blue, one of today’s most celebrated operatic voices, brings her radiant tone and compelling artistry to an intimate recital experience.
A leading presence at the Metropolitan Opera since her debut as Mimì in La bohème, Blue has appeared in major productions including Porgy and Bess, Fire Shut Up in My Bones, and La traviata, and recently starred in the title role of Verdi’s Aida in the company’s first new production of the work in decades.
In this special co-presentation by the Metropolitan Opera and Guild Hall, Blue continues the distinguished tradition of Met recital appearances, offering audiences a rare opportunity to hear her in a more personal and expressive setting.

With Daniel Patry
In the rush of daily life, finding a moment of true stillness can feel like a challenge. Join us for The Art of Meditation, a special two-hour workshop designed to demystify mindfulness and help you build a practice that actually sticks.
This course treats meditation as a creative, personal process. We will explore meditation as an art form in its own right, requiring the same practice, patience, and curiosity we bring to any creative endeavor. Through a blend of guided, accessible techniques and low-pressure group discussion, participants will learn how to train their attention and cultivate calm amidst the noise.
Whether you are a total beginner or looking to refresh your approach, you will leave with a toolkit for finding clarity and presence. No experience is necessary—just bring yourself and a willingness to explore.
Join Museum Director & Curator of Visual Arts, Melanie Crader, for a special mixed-bag Arts Social. For this session we will pull from skills we’ve learned over the past 18 months to create unique works of art in a variety of media.

Over the course of the two hours, we will also collaborate on an exquisite corpse artwork to be sold at Clothesline Art Sale on July 22.
Note: Admission to this Art Social will be applied towards your Clothesline registration.
