Thanks to everyone who helped make our 2013 Tea Series a wonderful success!  We were happy to have Jim Reagan to speak about the War of 1812 in January, Mark McMurray from St. Lawrence University in February to speak on Halftone printing and mass reproduction as done in Remington's time, Sue Longshore from the Silas Wright House to give a talk on Martha Summerhayes and Frederic Remington and Martha's memoir Vanished Arizona in March, and Paul Pedersen gave his talk about his experiences as a visual artist working with both sculpture and painting in April.  Our Tea Committee also put in a huge effort, setting up for each event and making homemade treats and goodies for each occasion, and providing unmatched service at each event.  Thank you all so much!

We are looking forward to presenting the 2014 Art Highlights and Tea Series.  Look for lectures to begin in January.  Read on for more information about the series:

The Art Highlights and Tea Series began roughly 15 years ago as a volunteer-led education program.  The "art highlights" talks by a great variety of volunteer presenters draw interested audiences every year. The program routinely includes four monthly lectures in January, February, March and April on the second Wednesday of each month.  Lectures begin at 2pm and are always free and open to the public.  Tea is served at 3pm.  The cost to participate in the tea is $10/person if you’re a Museum member, or $12 if not.  We offer a discounted rate if you purchase your tickets in advance for all teas in the series- $35 for members and $40 for non-members.

At the Frederic Remington Art Museum, we often have visiting artists who find inspiration using the artwork in our galleries. Follow the Flickr link to see photos of artist Mary Sprague working in our Albert Priest Newell Gallery. Also, check out our visiting artist’s websites:
