Guided Day Trip to Harn Museum of Art & More with Ruth Grim
Join OMAM Guest Curator Ruth Grim on a guided visit to the Harn Museum of Art in Gainesville to enjoy their new exhibition, French Moderns: Monet to Matisse, 1850-1950, as well as the many other art treasures on view in this museum which is one of Florida’s longstanding major arts institutions. After visiting the Harn Museum, we will venture south through Payne’s Prairie for a step into Old Florida at the historic towns of Cross Creek and Micanopy. Lunch will be available at The Yearling, a landmark restaurant in Central Florida on the land that is now the Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings State Park. After experiencing the Florida this famous writer called home and which inspired her classic novel, we will stop in the charming small town of Micanopy which was the site for the filming of the 1991 movie “Doc Hollywood.” Micanopy lives up to its reputation as one of Florida’s best small-town experiences complete with historic buildings, Spanish moss-draped live oaks, mansions, antique stores and more.
Our chartered bus will depart from OMAM promptly at 8:30am and will return to OMAM by 5:30pm. The trip registration fee (non-refundable) is $45 Museum/Guild members and $55 non-members. Participants are responsible for paying for their own meals, and other expenses.
