We’ll explore three centuries of American painting through the portraits of John Singleton Copley, Thomas Eakins, John Singer Sargent, and Mary Cassatt; the landscapes of Thomas Cole, Albert Bierstadt, Winslow Homer, and Robert Henri; and the diversity of the 20th century work of American artists such as Georgia O’Keeffe, Edward Hopper, Jackson Pollock, Helen Frankenthaler, Audrey Flack, Richard Estes, and Alex Katz.

Registration is required for this series, as space is limited. You do not need to register for each session individually; registration is for the entire series.
