Central Ohio Branch Visits Van Gogh Exhibition

National League of American Pen Women Central Ohio Branch

Nine members of the Central Ohio Branch and a “penguin” guest attended a tour of the Van Gogh exhibition at the Columbus Museum of Art on February 1st. The special exhibit featured original paintings and artworks not only of Van Gogh, but of other notable artists and influences from the same era. They were treated to a docent’s presentation of how the exhibit came about and how it was curated. She also shared a lot of biographical background, explaining how and why certain events took place in Van Gogh’s life.
