Frida Kahlo bus trip March 2

Frida Kahlo bus trip
March 2, 2008

It's not too late to sign up for the Riverfront Renaissance Center for the Arts bus trip to see the Frida Kahlo exhibit. Almost every newspaper is featuring the Kahlo exhibition at the Philadelphia Museum of Art. This is the only stop along the east coast for this exhibition of 40 paintings by the influential painter on the 100th anniversary of her birth. The exhibit will only travel to only 2 other museums. Regarded for her ability to fuse Mexican folk arts with Modernism, her self-portraits chronicle a life full of accomplishment and triumph over physical limitations. Frida Kahlo developed the small-scale self-portrait style when she was recovering from severe spinal injuries which kept her from painting on site or in a large format. The RRCA trip is on March 2, leaving Millville High School at 10:45pm. The tour will be from 1-4pm. Price for the bus trip and tickets to show: Adults- $50, Students and Seniors - $45. This trip is being run by Donna Pio, RRCA Education Committee Chair to help raise funds in support of the Art Creates Excellence programming at the RRCA. To sign up, call 856-327-4500 or stop in the RRCA, 22 N. High Street, Millville between 11-5pm- M-Th & Sun; Fri 11-8pm; Sat 11-7pm, www.riverfrontcenter.org.
