Paris Museum Soirée (2/4)
Thursday, October 28th at 5 PM Eastern Time

One might well question whether the Louvre’s status as the “largest art museum in the world” is actually an asset or more of a handicap. So, from the comfort of our armchairs, without the crowds, the miles of galleries and the giddying quantity of artworks, let’s take the opportunity to muse, amongst other things, on what this museum is, how it came about, and just why the Mona Lisa is so incredibly famous.

Virtual Soirée presentation procedure:

Dana and our guide will arrive at the meeting 10 minutes in advance for those of you who would like to say hello and make sure your zoom settings are ready. The presentation will start promptly at the scheduled hour, and Dana will begin the meeting by muting the microphones and introducing our speaker. The talk will be recorded.  The lecture will last about 45 minutes and afterward Dana will moderate a Q&A session. If you show up late, no worries, you will be muted upon entry.

After the tour, you will receive a follow-up email with a recording of the event. You will be able to access this recording until December 31st, 2021.
