Last night we had the privilege of hearing from Brian Kershisnik, the creator of the iconic Nativity painting featured in the MOA's West Lied Gallery, in a virtual Gallery Talk and Q&A. Viewers submitted their questions on everything from Kershisnik's career, the subjects of the painting, and more. Hear what he had to say here.
