If The Wolfsonian were a noise, what would it sound like? Rat Bastard has some ideas.

Join us for a very special Takeover Tour led by Rat Bastard, his portable amplifier and The Wolfsonian’s own Deputy Director for Collections and Curatorial Affairs/avid punk fan Sharon Aponte Misdea.

This 45-minute tour will illuminate the historical roots of the “noise” movement and feature a roving, improvised performance inspired by objects in The Wolfsonian collection.

Rat Bastard is the founder of the International Noise Conference and front man of the band Laundry Room Squelchers; he can be found making noise at Churchill’s most Thursday nights.

Space is limited; please RSVP by emailing [email protected]. Free with museum admission.
