Elevate Your Seminar Day with a Private Art Experience
As a special perk of your registration, you’re invited to enjoy a private, docent-led tour of the New Britain Museum of American Art’s featured exhibition before the seminar begins. This is not your average museum stroll — it’s an exclusive behind‑the-scenes walk-through reserved just for our seminar attendees, giving you a rare opportunity to engage with the art in an intimate setting.
What’s on display?
Currently, the museum is presenting Joe Fig: Contemplating Vermeer, a compelling exhibition that explores how viewers interact with Vermeer’s masterpieces through a series of new works by contemporary artist Joe Fig. The show offers a thought-provoking look at the act of observing art — and how that experience shapes what we see and feel.
Why you’ll love the tour
- Private access: Your group will have the gallery to yourselves (or nearly so), making for a peaceful, immersive experience.
- Insider insight: The museum’s docents bring depth to the viewing, sharing fascinating stories about technique, history, and artist intent.
- Jumpstart your day: Instead of arriving just in time for the class, you’ll begin your experience inspired and energized by creativity.
- Bonus value: Admission and the special tour are complimentary as part of your class registration — an elegant way to connect learning and culture.
We look forward to sharing this unique art encounter with you as part of your seminar experience. It’s a thoughtful pairing — a calm, captivating moment of reflection before diving into the essentials of fire mitigation.
