***Earlier Start Time!*** Saturday, February 8
10 a.m. to 12 noon: Book Discussion
12 noon to 1:00 p.m. OPTIONAL museum exploration
We will begin our book club session at 10:00 a.m. right when Cafe NOMA opens, rather than at 11:00 a.m. as initially planned.
This gives us plenty of time to drink coffee/eat and discuss “Lost and Found in Paris” before entering the museum at noon to tour the small but nice medieval and Renaissance artwork at NOMA and take a brief scavenger hunt to find Joan related images, symbols, and references among NOMA’s collection. Scavenger hunt is optional (only 7 items to find) but a fun way to see different exhibits at the museum. There is also a wonderful exhibit that just opened in December that may be of interest: Carlo Saraceni’s Our Lady of Loreto and Peruvian Viceregal Statue Paintings – New Orleans Museum of Art
We welcome anyone who has read our selected book “Lost and Found in Paris”, or who plans to read it and wants to get inspired to do so! It’s a quick easy read and full of wonderful Joan of Arc history and Joan of Arc themed art references, all set against the backdrop of Paris!
