On Thursday, July 22, 2021, the Walter Anderson Museum of Art in historic Ocean Springs, Mississippi introduced an exciting, new, family-friendly series to the public. The series called “Magic Hour” is based on the comments made by the world-renowned and celebrated artist-philosopher, Walter Inglis Anderson (1903-1965)
“It is approaching the magic hour before sunset, when all things are related…” – Walter Inglis Anderson
The mission of the Walter Anderson Museum of Art is : “…..to empower lifelong curiosity and connection to the natural world through the art of Walter Anderson and kindred artists.”
