Margaret Fitzhugh Browne: Portraits with Style
CAM Members Free, Non-Members $5
Registration Required as space is limited.
Join us for a deep dive into the life and work of artist, Margaret Fitzhugh Browne, Emily “Bonnie” Browne, The Artist’s Sister. Known mainly as a portraitist, Browne was commissioned to paint the portraits of such turn-of-the-century luminaries as Henry Ford, John Hayes Hammond Sr., Howard Blackburn and King Alfonso of Spain. Here we find Margaret Fitzhugh Browne turning her attention to a more conventional subject, her sister Bonnie.
Join us Thursdays for a unique experience. Led by a CAM docent, these deep dives into a single artwork or object from the Collection will begin with conversation, a short presentation and complimentary coffee at the Carlson Center, followed by a special trip to the James Center to view the object being discussed. No special knowledge needed! Just a curiosity to learn more in a small group setting and enjoy a unique experience.
