DAASV View Impressionists at the de Young 7/25/10

Members of the Dartmouth Alumni Association of Silicon Valley and their guests gathered at the de Young Museum in Golden Gate Park of San Francisco, CA for a private viewing of the Birth of Impressionism exhibit. We split into two groups, each with an informational docent, to tour the exhibit before the public opening for the day. It was very convenient to have all the open space and to be able to focus on the information being provided about the paintings. We had a great tour and ended up with a new appreciation for some fine works of art.
