In Honor of Mothers
In honor of Mother’s Day, Phoenix Art Museum is dedicating a PhxArt Virtual Visit to all of the women out there who have made a lasting impact on our lives.
The Museum wants to celebrate the women who helped us grow, mothers and pet moms, abuelas and bubbes, sisters and aunts, teachers and mentors, and even Mother Earth.
