Join us for a private chartered motorcoach from Wayne Art Center to DC to view the highly acclaimed exhibition, Paris 1874: The Impressionist Moment. Afterwards, a reserved luncheon will take place in the Garden Café. Following lunch, independently tour the permanent collection and then enjoy our private group tour of French Impressionism.
 
How did Impressionism begin? Discover the origins of the French art movement in a new look at the radical 1874 exhibition considered the birth of modern painting.
 
A remarkable presentation of 130 works includes a rare reunion of many of the paintings first featured in that now-legendary exhibition. Revisit beloved paintings by Paul Cezanne, Edgar Degas, Claude Monet, Berthe Morisot, Camille Pissarro, and Pierre-Auguste Renoir and meet their lesser-known contemporaries. See the art norms they were rebelling against and learn what political and social shifts sparked their new approach to art.
Don’t miss this unique chance to immerse yourself in the dynamic Parisian art scene of 1874–The National Gallery of Art is the only American stop for this historic exhibition.” (courtesy nationalgalleryofart.org)
