The notion of LOVE throughout history & art (at the National Gallery)

We will explore the understanding of love across twenty centuries, reflecting on several masterpieces that depict its many forms. Is love a passion? A desire or feeling? A determined will? And, more important, what kind of love is the most important one?
Philosophers and artists have said many things. You can also share your view in this meeting.
The conversation will be guided by a lecturer from The Catholic University of America. Come ready to walk, observe, and engage in thoughtful dialogue.

Five recommendations:

1. Reflect Beforehand: Before coming, take a moment to consider how deep are your relationships with others.
2. Be on Time! Meet us at 10:15 a.m. at the National Gallery (West Building) inside by the cloakroom of the main entrance (ground floor -- 6th Street and Constitution Avenue NW).
3. Hearing Devices will be provided for those who want. We recommend bringing wired headphones or earbuds to connect with these devices for better audio quality.
4. Tips Welcome: This is a free event, but tips are welcome. All contributions will go toward helping poor children in Africa (Kenya).
5. Optional Coffee Discussion: For those interested, we will have coffee in the same building afterwards to continue discussing these topics.
