This month at the Harvard Art Museums, we are pleased to share even more virtual live events through two of our most popular programs, the Ho Family Student Guide Tours and Art Study Center Seminars. Many thanks to all who have attended our events so far—we look forward to seeing you again soon. Invite your friends and family to join us as well!

Remember to check our frequently updated Harvard Art Museums from Home page, where you’ll find new articles, Art Talks, and details on live events. And of course, we invite you to explore our diverse collections online anytime.

Join curator Rachel Saunders for an introductory Art Talk on our exhibition Painting Edo: Japanese Art from the Feinberg Collection. The talk is the latest installment in this new series, which kicked off last month with curatorial fellow Jen Thum’s insights into Egyptian art.

Join us for online Ho Family Student Guide Tours, now offered up to three times a week! Also, our popular Art Study Center Seminars at Home will be presented live every other Friday.

Back by popular demand! We’ve put together a new list of recommendations from our staff for what art enthusiasts can read, watch, and listen to while at home.
