Common Time | Ron Pownall @ Leica Gallery Boston

The Griffin Museum is pleased to partner with Leica Gallery Boston to celebrate New England legend Ron Pownall, the photographer who has spent more than five decades standing at the edge of the stage with rock and roll's greatest names. Part of our Common Time exhibition lecture series, we are thrilled to have Ron discuss his storied career as a visual storyteller.

Join us at Leica Gallery Boston on Wednesday November 18 at 6pm for an up-close look at the photographer who helped define how the sound of a generation looked.
