At last, a book club themed around artists, art, and art history! Once a month, we will meet in the art-filled Gallery at The Barn to discuss each month's selection. Free, hosted by Dave Laug. Enjoy nibbles and wine while discussing art-related books with other literary fans. Registration required, to let us know how many chairs to set up.

The first meeting's selection is "The Last Painting of Sara de Vos", by Dominic Smith. According to Goodreads.com, "This is what we long for: the profound pleasure of being swept into vivid new worlds, worlds peopled by characters so intriguing and real that we can't shake them, even long after the reading's done. In his earlier, award-winning novels, Dominic Smith demonstrated a gift for coaxing the past to life. Now, in The Last Painting of Sara de Vos, he deftly bridges the historical and the contemporary, tracking a collision course between a rare landscape by a female Dutch painter of the golden age, an inheritor of the work in 1950s Manhattan, and a celebrated art historian who painted a forgery of it in her youth."
