Join Cornell Alumni to welcome art lovers and all wishing to show gratitude for the dedication of public servants in our community.
Description:
A former high school librarian, current graduate student in Art History will lead a light discussion of "look fors" in selected pieces by some of the Masters (with the intention to focus on messages of balance, healing, strengthening, and building bridges across humanity.) We'll tour French Impressionist works of art. With some luck and enough sign-ups, we will have a professionally guided tour to help us "slow look" and enhance the observations we might quietly share.

Noon arrival is optional.
12:20 we'll announce a few "look fors" and begin our slow walking tour of about 60 - 75 minutes. We'll go upstairs to Rooms 80-93, (bright yellow on the map.)Keeping in mind that our event may have to be squeezed into a guest's lunchtime, it is fine to break off and depart at any time that you must.
1:30 pm (optional): folks can continue to walk about the National Gallery of Art on their own, or to socialize over coffee or lunch downstairs at the Espresso and Gelato Bar or Cascade Cafe on the concourse between the East and West buildings.
