Thursday, February 3, 2011
7:30pm

On Thursday, February 3, at 7:30pm VCA will be teaming up with the Crest Theatre for a second installment of film viewing and discussion. Some of you may remember our screening of "The Art of the Steal" last year, which covered the relocation of the Barnes Collection in Philadelphia. The screening and discussion that followed was engaging and at times a tad tense as we discussed the role and responsibility of the collector in regard to the work they collect.
