Art Tour Description: We are fortunate to have our own Terry M hosting our art tour: Inspiration or Cultural Appropriation? Who can use what, and how, in art and literature? Let’s discuss the topic against the backdrop of VMFA’s extensive collections. We will explore objects spanning the centuries from a variety of cultures, where fresh artistic inspiration sprang from exposure to new places and cultures."
