In early April, students from the Clemente Course in the Humanities visited the Museum of Fine Arts Boston (MFA) for a day of art appreciation and community building. Students from Springfield, Holyoke, Worcester, Brockton, and New Bedford Clemente sites explored an array of galleries and exhibits featuring a diverse range of artists and media, from paintings by Monet to classical sculptures from antiquity. Art history professors from each city led their groups through the gallery spaces, offering insights and inviting questions along the way. Watch the recap video below to hear from Clemente staff as and students.
In collaboration with New England Public Media (NEPM), we’re thrilled to share a three-part documentary series titled “Legacies: Stories of Black History in the 413.”
