Join us for a rare chance to explore Central Park through art historian Barbara Ferrante’s beguiling photos and meticulously researched lecture. Starting with the early plans of Frederick Law Olmsted and his partner, Calvert Vaux, Ms. Ferrante will illuminate how a desolate swamp with huge indigenous rock out-croppings was transformed into America’s most beautiful park. Her presentation includes a compilation of her beautiful photos of America’s most treasured urban oasis…Central Park! A life-long part-year resident of Montauk, Barbara Ferrante has lectured and taught art history for the NJ Council for the Humanities and many other organizations and leads weekly museum tours through Petite Tours With Barbara. Suitable for Adults & Teens. Registration recommended.
