Ingalls Library Programs
| Research Roadshow |
Patrons interested in researching artworks in their collections should take
note of this offering. Perhaps you are wondering if the painting above your
sofa is famous. Maybe that bowl you store your spare change in is worth
more than a few pennies. The Ingalls Library reference staff will discuss
the basics of art research while discovering the hidden history of an object
in your personal collection. Attendees must pre-register through the Museum's
Ticket Center. Tickets are free for members.
The cost for non-members is $20.00. Photographs of the object to be researched
should be submitted to Matthew Gengler, Instruction and Outreach Librarian,
via email (mgengler@clevelandart.org)
or regular mail (c/o Ingalls Library) at least two weeks prior to the class.
Objects may not be brought into the Museum or into the Ingalls Library.
Each session is limited to 5 participants who may submit one object for
research assistance.
