BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND!!

Scheduled for four afternoons on the last Friday of each month beginning April 29, Professor Lovett will again take us on fascinating interactive journeys. At each session we will look closely at one work of African American art and together discuss what it conveys about our society. We’ll be challenged to dig deeper into what the artist may have experienced in creating the work and what we are experiencing in intense observation. 

This event will be a “cameras on” live discussion – following the format of Professor Lovett’s popular on-line classes. Prior art experience of any kind is not necessary.  Professor Lovett’s discussions are for everyone! 

Each session will be a separate and complete “journey” though a work of African American art. It is not necessary to sign up for every session. (Each session is $8 for members and $12 for guests.)
