Lifelong Learning LogoCourse Title: Walks in the Walters Art Museum

Instructor:  Sheila Vidmar, JD, A&S '22 (MA)

Brought to you by Odyssey   

January 30, 2025 - February 20, 2025 (4 Sessions)  

Thursday,  6:00PM ET - 8:00PM ET  

Virtual via Zoom 

 

 

Course Description: A series of Zoom presentations concerning the art and objects at the Walters Art Museum in Baltimore. Each class will begin with an examination and discussion of one work of art. We will continue by “exploring” the galleries via Zoom, to examine, discuss, and compare paintings, sculpture and objects that provide context for the main object. Using Zoom, we can compare and contrast things that are not near each other in the museum, or not often on view. Our goal will be to have some fun, hone observation skills, and gain deeper appreciation of art of different times, different cultures,  and different regions.
