VIRTUAL Norman Rockwell & WWII
Thursday, November 1011:00 AM—12:00 PMVirtual Event via Zoom
America's most beloved illustrator created dozens of images related to the second World War. What happens when an artist known for his use of humor tackles the serious subject of war? This program explores how his work departs from earlier artistic interpretations of American conflicts and considers how and why he chose specific wartime themes to present to the millions of readers of the Saturday Evening Post. Led by art historian Jane Oneail, owner of Culturally Curious. Jane holds a Master’s in Art History from Boston University and a Master’s in Education from the Harvard University Graduate School of Education. She 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.
This program is offered in collaboration with Tewksbury Public Library and other Massachusetts libraries.
