Over the last couple of weeks, we’ve been touched and inspired by the spirit of community within the arts and culture family—thank you for all the kind messages you’ve sent. We invite you to visit our new Harvard Art Museums from Home page, where you’ll soon be able to access a whole range of features, including a new video series of Art Talks given remotely by our team, information on our new Museums LIVE events, and creative resources for parents to enjoy with children. We’ll also be spotlighting stories and talks from our special exhibition Painting Edo: Japanese Art from the Feinberg Collection. This week on Harvard Art Museums from Home: Get staff recommendations on what to read, watch, and listen to while staying at home. Learn about Japanese manuscripts on edX. Check out conservator Kate Smith’s take on October Noon, by George Inness. Find out what was underneath Van Gogh’s painting Three Pairs of Shoes. We have many stories to tell, so be sure to check back weekly as we add new material. We’d also love to hear your ideas and suggestions for what you’d like to see from us in the coming weeks. Reach out on social or by email.
