2/16/2023 - Cassatt & Company: The Women Impressionists on March 10, 2023

On Friday, March 10th, 2023 from 2-3:30pm on Zoom and streamed to the Kingsley Room, join us for a virtual program about women impressionist painters.

The visual arts revolution that was Impressionism is, too often, only understood only through the lens of the leading male practitioners - Monet, Renoir and Degas. Join us as we explore the paintings of Marie Bracquemond, Berthe Morisot, Mary Cassatt and others and consider the unique challenges they faced as women artists in a male-dominated profession.

Jane Oneail is an independent scholar and holds a Master's in Art History from Boston University and a Master's in Art in Education from Harvard University. Jane is a New Hampshire native and has worked at some of the state's most esteemed cultural institutions, including the League of New Hampshire Craftsmen, where she served as Executive Director, and the Currier Museum of Art, where she held the role of Senior Educator.
