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 Cézanne, Claude Monet, Berthe Morisot, and Camille Pissarro 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.

To minimize long lines, and since the exhibit closes in Jan, we are going to meet on a week-day! Join us on Thursday, January 2 at 11am. Please enter at 6th and Constitution Avenue and meet the group in that lobby. Hopefully many of you are still on winter break and can make this time!

After enjoying the show, we will regroup at 12:30 and head for a casual lunch at the Cascade Cafe.
