In-Person – Friday 10:10 am – 11:50 am
We bring our own perspective to art as does the artist. We explore a group of artists who have influenced us and were influenced by religion, nationality, gender, political point of view or a combination of them. The viewer is invited to experience what has been created. Come with an open mind and willingness to talk. The art will range across many different centuries and styles of art.
