Please join us as student curator Talia Traskos-Hart '25 leads a tour of the exhibition From Daughters to Mothers: A Study of Reproductive Labor at the Bowdoin College Museum of Art. The tour will begin at noon in the Museum Pavilion.

On view through March 2, 2025, From Daughters to Mothers investigates the complex concepts of motherhood through the lens of reproductive labor: the unpaid work associated with caregiving, the maintenance of a household, and child-rearing. The artists featured in this exhibition convey the joys of motherhood alongside its tangible hardships.
