Museum hours: 10 a.m. - 5 p.m. Tuesday-Saturday

Through Dec. 11

Our Positive Bodies: Mapping Our Treatment, Sharing Our Choices: Created in Nairobi, Kenya, by the Trust for Indigenous Culture and Health in 2004, this exhibition explores "body mapping," a technique devised to help HIV-positive women cope with the fact that they were likely to die prematurely and leave their children behind. In body mapping, life-size silhouette self-portraits express the feelings, memories, treatment and identities of those likely to die of AIDS.

Through Dec. 18

Barry Nemett: Drawing from Italy: An exhibition of works on paper executed while the artist, chair of painting at the Maryland Institute College of Art, was working en plein air in Umbria, Italy.

Through March 26, 2010

Joel Babb: The Process Revealed: This exhibition investigates the role of both the act of drawing and the drawings themselves in making a painting. Rather than mere by-products of the act of creating paintings, drawings are engaging, satisfying and instructive in their own right. Illustrating the creative process by pairing preparatory drawings with finished paintings, this exhibition will reveal the many stages of work that go into a resolved piece of art.
