A Look at Western Art History is a new series of classes available through Ridgefield Continuing Education. The courses will focus on artists’ accomplishments, the significance of their inventions and discoveries, and how the new ways of seeing pushed Western art forward. The 19th Century covers Monet and the Impressionists, and the artists who “truly” fathered modern art.
Instructor Michael Serao holds a master’s degree in fine arts and has been employed in art and photography and teaching for more than 20 years.
The class meets on Wednesdays, March 9 and 16, from 7 to 9 p.m. at East Ridge Middle School. Cost is $49. A follow-up class on the 20th Century is on March 30 and April 6. Advance registration required. For more information, Peggy Bruno at 203-431-2812 or ridgefieldschools.org
