Spring Tours 2012 - Revising the Revision

Pierre-Auguste Renoir, Skaters in the Bois de Boulogne, 1889

Dear friends,

Thank you so much for responding to my last newsletter. I am happy to return to the original plan, except for the Cindy Sherman show.   I love her work and would be happy to get together for fun, but there is not need to tour this show. It's self-explanatory.

Looking forward to sharing this wonderful art season with you,

Beth
