The Snails of Gainesboro
Our slow-moving gastropods may seem like an unlikely choice for the side of our building, but their whimsical nature and unique appearance make them the perfect fit for a museum that celebrates creativity and imagination. As ambassadors of the museum, the snails symbolize the journey of exploration and discovery that awaits inside, inviting all to slow down, take a closer look, and appreciate the beauty of contemporary art in a whole new light.
