Looking for something to do with the family over the weekend? The New York Botanical Garden currently has an exhibition that Willoughby will be interested in!
We read the picture book Katie Meets the Impressionists, a magical story of a little girl who, while visiting an art museum with her grandmother, journeys inside the paintings of several French Impressionist masters. One painter Katie admires is Claude Monet.
The New York Botanical Garden is currently showcasing a seasonally changing interpretation of the garden that inspired Monet's art. In addition, two rarely seen paintings by the artist will be on view, and films, concerts, poetry readings, and hands-on art for kids will provide rich insight into the life and work of this renowned master.
