Participants at a family workshop make cosmic art inspired by artwork by Barbara Takenaga in the 105th Annual Exhibition of Contemporary Art: Threatening Beauty.
O UR M EMBERS & V OLUNTEERS ... were offered discounts on two day trips. In the fall, to the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts for the special exhibition, Fine Art & Flowers. In the spring, to the Taubman Museum of Art in Roanoke to see the special exhibitions, Romare Bearden: Pictures of America and American Impressionism in the Garden. Maier Members at the $100 Friend level or higher were invited to a private luncheon on September 27, 2016 with Dr. Caroline Campbell, Curator of Italian Paintings Before 1500 and Loans Curator at the National Gallery, London. These members also received an invitation and free admission to the Forte Chamber Music’s A Summer Concert on June 25, 2017. Several volunteers took advantage of the opportunity to audit one Randolph College art history course each semester at no charge. Course auditing is offered as both a supplement to their volunteer training and as a benefit of volunteering. Volunteer training and programs were held most Mondays throughout the year. These events included art-related documentary screenings, lectures, workshops, and group discussions.
