Treasures of the Barnes Foundation
Sunday, October 18        1:00PM - 4:30PM

Our deluxe transportation will take us to the world-renowned Barnes Foundation.  Established by Dr. Albert C. Barnes in 1922 to "promote the advancement of education and the appreciation of the fine arts,"  and located in a twelve-acre arboretum, the Foundation is home to one of the world's largest collections of Impressionist, Post-Impressionist and early Modern paintings, with extensive holdings by Picasso, Matisse, Cézanne, Renoir and Modigliani.

The Barnes Foundation collection is unsurpassed in breadth, quality, and depth in French Impressionist, Post-Impressionist, and early Modern paintings. It is enhanced by Greek, Roman and Egyptian antiquities, Chinese painting, African sculpture, retablos from New Mexico, Native American pottery, and American decorative arts.
