Hello Everyone!

My name is Linda, and this is my first time with this web site, so I hope I am doing this right. With being a little scared and excited about this class, I am looking forward to visiting my list of museums. I had to read the syllabus over a few times to get the concept of this class. It is very different from the other on-line class that I have completed. Well have a good week everyone.

Museum Schedule

Week 2: Wadsworth Atheneum & The Wordsworth Atheneum Hartford, CT
Week 3: Florence Griswold Museum, Old Lyme, CT
Week 4: The Aldrich Museum of Contemporary Art, Ridgefield, CT
Week 5: The Bruce Museum, Greenwich, CT
Week 6: Metropolitan Museum of Art, NYC




OK...

As I said a few weeks back I went into the city with my sister in law. We had tickets to go see Reachal Ray but as it ended up they gave out to many tickets and they had no seats left when they got to us! Oh well more time for the MET!

For any of you that are plaing on going soon I wold say make it one of the last trips of the class. Not only may you want to save the best for last BUT they are doing a TUN of work right now and many of the rooms were closed.

My favorite rooms are of the impressionists. I am a big fan of Monet so to see his work up close is a great experience. Just knowing that HE was the one that made the brush strokes you see is very cool. Its a picture of history frozen in time. Its what he saw... well literally considering that he was near sighted. That is the reason all his images are blurry.

I am also incuding some great pics I got of the temple. This is a must see when you go

Hello All!

My name is Stephanie and I am a Sr at AMC. This is the 4 time I have taken one of Jerrys on line classes and they are great! I am a PSY/Art therapy Major and love anything to do with the arts.

I had a baby 3 months ago and as any of you mom(or dads) know, she takes up a tun of time so the online format is a great way to get things done. It also is helping me feel as if I am still conected to the rest of the world.

I had been working at a small company for over 2 years and went back from matunity leave on Monday to find I no longer had a job! Good and bad I guess... I get to stay home with my baby Emily longer but the $ thing is a bit scary now.

I do home dems of lia Sophia Jewelry and pampered chef so I am spreading the word that this is now my full time job in hopes that people will have Christmas shopping dems. S let me know if any one wants to have a party and get a TUN of free stuff form me ; )

Any way, enough about my problems! I went to the met about 2 weeks ago and got some AWESOME shots Ill put some of them up for everyone to see.
