A locked museum. Five eccentric art teachers. One missing Salvador Dalí masterpiece.

In this special fiction-meets-art-history podcast, you'll step into the MoMA after hours, where a professional development retreat turns into something much more sinister. What begins as an inspiring evening quickly spirals into chaos when Dalí's The Persistence of Memory disappears.

Each teacher has their quirks, secrets, and possible motives:

• Delilah Rose – the bubbly Ms. Frizzle of the art room, all glitter glue and good intentions… but is she too innocent?

• Solomon Ochre – the arrogant competitor, desperate to showcase his talent and prove his importance.

• Amber Russell – indifferent, sarcastic, observant, and maybe secretly brilliant.

• Madison Periwinkle – the "artfluencer", livestreaming for clout and sharing her entire teaching experience.

• Robert Celadon – the old school purist, obsessed with tradition, forgery, and art history.

When the painting vanishes, suspicion falls on them all. With quirky detectives, unreliable security, and tangled motives, this is more than a PD event—it's a full-blown art heist mystery.

Listen now to experience a story blending art history, teaching art, and true-crime-style suspense.

Can you solve the mystery before the detectives do?
