WORCESTER ART MUSEUM: WATERCOLORS UNBOXED

JUNE 28TH | 11:15AM |

Worcester Art Museum

The Crimson Hat ladies are going on an off-site outing to the Worcester Art Museum - Watercolors Unboxed. The experience will take you on an exploration of 75 years of watercolors—from 1880 through the 1950s—through exceptional examples of the medium. Drawn from WAM’s internationally renowned collection of watercolors, the exhibition will begin with a selection of 19th-century European watercolorists who influenced what would become a favored American art form, and will feature 50 works, including highlights by Childe Hassam, Winslow Homer, Rockwell Kent, and John Singer Sargent. Watercolors Unboxed will explore significant themes in the American watercolor tradition, demonstrating how American artists embraced watercolor as a way to elevate the landscape genre.

Price per person: $14 includes Worcester Museum admission.
