Late Renoir: The Countdown Has Begun!

Opening June 17, 2010
Late Renoir follows the renowned painter Pierre-Auguste Renoir through the final—and most fertile and innovative—decades of his career. At the height of his creative powers and looking toward posterity, Renoir created art that was timeless, enticing, and worthy of comparison to the greatest of the old masters, such as Raphael, Titian, and Rubens.

Mom Blogger Tweetup


Thanks to all the mom bloggers who passed the kids off to dad, or the babysitter, and came out to celebrate the finale of Picasso and the Avant-Garde in Paris with us last Friday, April 30th. Here's the Flickr photo stream from the gathering. We lucked out with amazing weather, and some pretty tasty cocktails. Stay tuned for more blogger events at the PMA. Have a suggestion for one?
