Spring 2011 Gould Seminar in Painting

For the first time, the Gould Center will offer a fine arts seminar.  Ertai and Maya Gao, extraordinary painters whose work was exhibited at the Athenaeum last spring, will teach a seminar on the art of painting next semester.  The Center is very excited to provide this addition to our curriculum.  For more details on the seminar, click on "Gould Center Seminar" at left.  Biographical information on the Gaos is also available by clicking on "Artists in Residence".
