[3]The Museum of Fine Arts has launched a new online book club to provide established book clubs with new ways to link literature to art at the museum. Clubs can choose one of the current selections and download a discussion guide for it. They can read the book and use the discussion guide to facilitate their conversation. Then, they can schedule a special guided tour at the museum to look at works of art that connect with their book.
Selections for fall are Lydia Cassatt Reading the Morning Paper [3], by Harriet Chessman Scott, and The Private Lives of the Impressionists [2]by Sue Roe.
Visit the MFAH book club website [4]to learn more and to sign up for their e-mail newsletter.
