Art History Zoom Series         ZOOM
This is a continuing monthly series on Zoom. Those new to the series must register. There is no charge as all involved are volunteering. In June, we began a monthly chronological survey of (mostly) Western art history with detours along the way for specific topics or artists. Works in nearby museums will be privileged to encourage you to see the art in person. Those registered will be sent an email with a handout and Zoom link.

May 21 
Talk 12: Rome (part 2 – Engineering an Empire)
June 4   Talk 13: Glass Making from Mesopotamia to Modern

Toledo Museum of Art
The Toledo Museum is an easy drive from Detroit. It was founded in 1901 by Edward Drummond Libbey, owner of the Libbey Glass Company. He funded the construction of the original building and left the museum his glass collection, his collection of Dutch and English art, and a large endowment. The museum now has a collection of over 30,000 objects, including one of the world's most comprehensive glass collections in a pavilion opened in 2006 especially for glass. We'll look at a range of art but spend a lot of time exploring the glass and its history.
