A New Trip has been arranged by the ever-active Trips Committee.
A visit to the Katonah Museum of Art, Katonah, NY will take place on Wednesday, December 1.
It will feature a guided tour of "Arrivals," more than 50 works by artists from the 16th to the 21st centuries. The exhibit focuses on seven "arrival moments": 1492, Columbus; 1620, Mayflower; 1860s, the Middle Passage; 1891-1924, Ellis Island; World War II; 1965; and Today, the southern border.
The artists explore arrival moments and "What does it mean to be an American?" through myths and complexities, storytelling, memories of ancestors, belonging, race, perseverance and the way the U.S. has reacted to changing demographics and societies.
Also, there will be a single Rothko in a room designed for reflection by one individual.
Sign-up, as usual, will be in the Trips Book located in the Activities Alcove.
