Free with Museum admission and Elena Grajek: Overdramatic, Sun., Mar. 13-May 8. Grajek’s drawings, collages, and prints play with pareidolia, the human tendency to see an object or meaning where there is none.

In Grajek's work, people and animals, sometimes clearly depicted and sometimes suggested in an abstracted form, may share a space with squiggles and blobs of color, or with lines that form complex but unidentifiable objects that live only in her work. Hours: Tues.-Sat., 10 a.m.-5 p.m. and Sun., 12-5 p.m. Admission: $12 for adults; $6 for seniors and students and free for members and children under 12. Proof of COVID-19 vaccination (ages 5+) and masks (ages 2+) are required for all visitors. Advance timed tickets are recommended. www.katonahmuseum.org.
