Nonie Gadsen, Katharine Lane Weems Senior Curator of American Decorative Arts and Sculpture at the Museum of Fine Arts, and the MFA’s Benjamin Weiss, the Leonard A. Lauder Senior Curator of Visual Culture, join The Culture Show for our recurring series, “American Revolution: Frame by Frame.” Each month the curators and experts from the MFA join the show to talk about works in their collection that offer insight into the American Revolution. This is an extension of Museums 250. Today Nonie Gadsen and Benjamin Weiss discuss the "Goddess of Liberty" weathervane.

From there David Coffin, a musician, music-educator and a maritime specialist is also a guide for Boston Harbor City Cruises. He joins The Culture Show for an overview of their “Lighthouses and Tales of Boston Harbor,” cruises, which run through May 15th. To learn more go here.

Finally, we get an overview of “Utopian Hotline,” a theatrical experience that asks the question: “How would you envision a more perfect future?“ It’s staged by Theater Mitu and here in Boston, it’s presented by ArtsEmerson and the Museum of Science. It plays through May 18th at the Museum of Science Charles Hayden Planetarium. Denis Butkus, Theater Mitu Company Producer and co-creator of “Utopian Hotline,” joins The Culture Show.
