On Thursday, Jan. 28, 1:30pm via Zoom. The United States was not founded by schooled artists, but by people seeking freedom and adventure. American artists have been like America itself, pioneering, bold, and independent. Early American artists had their roots firmly planted in European traditions but explored their own frontiers and evolved their own unique flavor, forged in the struggles of the birth of our nation. Join us on Zoom for a look at the roots of American Art from 1776 until 1900 with its pioneering courage and rebellious spirit. Sign up by calling the COA at 508-358-2990 or email us at coa@wayland.ma.us.  Made possible by a generous grant from the Friends of the Wayland Council on Aging.
