This month, by the way, we have experienced our greatest readership ever. This means people are craving art, we&nbsp;think, even if virtually. We deliver. We also give a nod to some of our most famous former faculty, Wayne Thiebaud and Manuel Neri. And if you take the walk suggested by the museum, you'll find fellow-faculty William Wiley's work, as well. We also feature another Manetti Shrem video offering a little project.</p> April 30, 2020 - 11:12am Karen Michele Nikos /arts/blog/start-may-mondavi-concert-making-binocular-walking Weekender: It's Spring Break — Venture Out /arts/blog/spring-break-venture-out <p>The Roaming Eye,&nbsp;International Street Photography from the Ramer Collection, features street photography now through May 12.
