As part of the museum’s 30th-anniversary celebration, Intuit invites members to a series of virtual private collection tours hosted on Zoom throughout 2021. Each event includes a screening of a collector’s home tour, followed by personal stories told and a Q&A with the collector about their collecting journey.

Join fellow Intuit members for a tour of Anthony Petullo’s collection. Over the past twenty years, Mr. Petullo has assembled an outstanding collection of works by artists who are often described as “self-taught,” “naïve” or “outsider.” These artists are, as Mr. Petullo has written, “orphans without an art family,” creating works that do not fit into the conventional narrative of twentieth-century art. This collection tour explores his Milwaukee home, highlighting artworks by James Lloyd, Madge Gill, Scottie Wilson, Mr. Imagination and more!

This event is exclusive to members. To check your membership status or renew your membership, email membership coordinator Tina Horton at tina@art.org.

Intuit will email the Zoom link to members the week of the event. Please check your junk folder; unfortunately, these emails are sent there sometimes.
