Join us at 9:00 am at the Stage Left Cafe for coffee and conversation before the 10:00 am program start. Featured February Speaker: Patrick Bringley, "All the Beauty in the World: The Metropolitan Museum of Art and Me." Bringley’s classic workplace memoir about his decade as a guard in the galleries of the Metropolitan Museum of Art is a tale of beauty, grief, and solace, and a profound lesson in learning not “about art, but from it.” Selected as the Outstanding Art Book of 2023 by London’s Sunday Times and named a Best Book of 2023 by NPR and Audible.
