Go, Van Gogh! – 2pm

April 30, 2017 @ 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm

Go, Van Gogh will be presented by Michael Norris of Armchair Art Tours*. Mr. Norris received his BA in classics from the University of California at San Diego and his MA in classics and Ph.D. in art history at the University of California at Santa Barbara. He spent twenty mike-norrisyears at the Cloisters Museum and the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York and has lectured on trips all over the world. He lives in Teaneck, New Jersey.

Pastor and painter Vincent van Gogh produced more than 2,000 works of art in his last decade. Van Gogh wrote to his brother Theo that, as he had no children, he viewed his paintings as his progeny. We’ll explore some of these “brilliant children,” especially those of the Metropolitan Museum of Art.

Wine and cheese will be served following the presentation. A suggested donation of $5 will go towards this and future educational and cultural programs.

RSVP: Seating is limited so please reserve your place by calling (203) 707-0710.
