Description

Exhibition organizer Lucinda Barnes, chief curator and director of programs and collections, leads an informative tour of American Wonder: Folk Art from the Collection.

American Wonder: Folk Art from the Collection captures our burgeoning nation during a time of enormous change, from the Declaration of Independence in 1776 to the onset of the Civil War in 1861. The exhibition includes approximately fifty portraits, landscapes, commemorative mourning pictures, weather vanes, and decorative sculptures from the BAM/PFA collection. This distinguished collection—one of the finest of American folk art in California—is due to the generosity of W.B. Carnochan and N.C. Edebo.

Included with BAM/PFA Gallery Admission.

$7.00 – Non-UC Berkeley students; Senior citizens (65 & over); Disabled persons; Young adults (13-17)
