Art Talk
Individuals who can no longer visit the Museum due to age-related limitations or disabilities can still experience the excitement of a lively conversation about works of art. Art Talk links ten to fifteen participants in their homes with a Museum or Park House Guide on a FREE conference call through a regular phone line, providing an ideal way for art lovers to connect. You can participate in the conversation or just listen, and you do not need an art background to enjoy Art Talk. A booklet will be sent to you to view objects as you listen and discuss them.
Each session is approximately 45 minutes to one hour in length, with two or three sessions per course. Past courses have included paintings and sculptures by Pablo Picasso, Peter Paul Rubens, Henry Ossawa Tanner, Claude Monet, and Auguste Rodin, as well as decorative arts and architecture from the historic houses of Fairmount Park. You are invited to join one of the upcoming courses and spend an hour in each of three weeks in conversation with new friends
Schedule
