To coincide with the public opening of this world-class exhibit on Saturday, February 9, the museum is offering members a complimentary showing of the exhibition. The complimentary showing will include docent-led tours of the show. ALL MEMBERS' DAYS TOURS ARE FULL. All members are encouraged to join distinguished lecturer, John House, Walter H. Annenberg Professor at the Courtauld Institute of Art, London, and Curator of Impressionists by the Sea at noon in the Aetna Theater.
