Tina Mion has exhibited three times at the Smithsonian’s National Portrait Gallery, and is in collections all over the country including the Smithsonian, The Nelson Atkins museum, and the Albrecht-Kemper Museum. She has given talks all over the country including the Phoenix Art Museum, University of Chicago and the LACMA.
