  • Crystal Bridges: A Visit to an American Museum of Art

    Virtual Presentation

    It's time to get traveling again! This time we'll head (virtually) to northwestern Arkansas to visit the Crystal Bridges Museum, one of the nation’s most outstanding collections of American art, assembled by Walmart heir Alice Walton. We'll look at Moshe Safdie’s spectacular architecture and briefly explore the museum’s vast collection spanning 500 years, including works by John James Audubon, Norman Rockwell, Frank Lloyd Wright, Keith Haring and many others. Led by Riva Blumenfeld, Art Educator
