3/15/2024 - Claude Monet: Impressions from Nature on April 26, 2024

On Friday, April 26, 2024 from 2-3:30pm on Zoom and streamed to the Kingsley Room, join us for a virtual program and learn more about Claude Monet.

Claude Monet was the founder of French Impressionism, a revolutionary style that involves working outside and rapidly executing sketchy paintings to capture momentary effects of light and shadow. Monet returned to familiar outdoor subjects throughout his career, culminating with his beloved series on the water lilies in his garden in Giverny. Join us as we explore the artist’s life, career and many of his most beloved works.
