Tour the Baltimore Museum of Art with Trout Gallery Director Shannon Egan
Dickinsonians are invited to join Shannon Egan, director of The Trout Gallery, the art museum of Dickinson College, for a tour at the Baltimore Museum of Art. Egan will lead alumni through the special exhibition Amy Sherald: American Sublime, which traces the evolution of the artist, a defining voice of her generation who transformed American portraiture. We also will be exploring the Baltimore Museum of Art’s famed Cone Collection of modern art, featuring masterpieces by Henri Matisse, Pablo Picasso, Paul Cézanne and Vincent van Gogh.
The tour is expected to run approximately 60 minutes. Conversation will continue at R. House (301 W. 29th St.) following our museum visit.
