To expose yourself to art, a great first step is to go to a local museum and ask for a tour. The curator would love to discuss the finer details of the work with you, and depending on the museum, you'll probably see a big span in styles, from ancient to contemporary. You can ask the curator about events at the museum and also look for local galleries and gallery openings - the gallery openings tend towards contemporary art which is only one specific slice of art, though. To get in touch with your local art "scene", you can also look at local live events, like concerts, dance or live theater. These might be harder to find because in some places, it's hard to find a venue for independent live art like this. These are mostly advertised via word of mouth, hard to find websites or flyers.
