The Lewiston Public Library and Auburn Public Library are co-hosting the Museum Of Bad Art for a virtual program entitled “Tough Times – From Having a Bad Day to Dystopian Apocalypse.” This free, public program will take place from 5:30 to 6:30 PM, Monday, March 21st on Zoom.

Art has always helped get us through difficult times. In this presentation, the Museum Of Bad Art explores some of the ways artists react to disasters small and large, real and imagined. The Museum Of Bad Art (MOBA), based out of Somerville, MA, collects, exhibits, and celebrates art that will be seen in no other venue. Since 1993, they have collected art from thrift stores, yard sales, sidewalk trash, and even the artists who create it. They analyze, compare to classic art, and share with thousands of fans around the world.

Michael Frank, Curator in Chief, is an acolyte who studied under the strict tutelage of the founding Esteemed Curator. Mr. Frank now heads the entire department. His appointment was due to his record of contributing more art to MOBA than anyone other than the Esteemed Curator. Mike is a professional musician who lives in Boston.

Admission is free. Registration is required.


This program is co-sponsored by the Auburn Public Library, Lewiston Public Library, and Museum Of Bad Art.
