Category 1 teams (grades 4-6) and Category 2 teams (grades 7-8) will design and build a bridge.  Category 3 teams (grades 9-12) will design and build a bridge and/or crane.  On the day of the event, faculty, staff and students from the L.C.

$15 - members, $10 - Everson Members

The Everson is pleased to present Turner to Cézanne: Masterpieces from the Davies Collection, National Museum Wales this fall. In preparation for this unique exhibition, the museum is closing the second-floor galleries for renovations from May 15—October 3, 2009.

Remarkable for its breadth and the quality of its works, the Davies collection at National Museum Wales is an ex­traordinary group of nineteenth- and early twentieth-century paintings collected largely between 1908 and 1923 by sisters Margaret and Gwendoline Davies. By 1914 the Davies sisters had assembled one of the finest collections of European modern art in Britain, including works by the modern masters Paul Cézanne, Camille Corot, Honoré Daumier, Edouard Manet, Jean-François Millet, Claude Monet, Pierre-Auguste Renoir, Joseph M.W. Turner, Vincent van Gogh, and James Abbot McNeill Whistler among others.

The exhibition is organized by the American Federation of Arts and National Museum Wales. This exhibition is supported by an indemnity from the Federal Council on the Arts and the Humanities. .

The presentation of Turner to Cézanne at the Everson Museum of Art is made possible through generous support by Lead Exhibition Sponsor M&T Bank, Co-sponsor Hiscock & Barclay, LLP and Gallery Sponsors National Grid and The Post-Standard.

Additional support provided by the New York State Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation grant made possible by Senator John DeFrancisco; the Dormitory Authority of the State of New York grant made possible by Assemblyman William Magnarelli; the Everson Museum of Art Members' Council; The Gifford Foundation; WCNY-TV; Arthur and Cheryl Grant; Dr. Paul E. Phillips and Ms. Sharon Sullivan; and Syracuse-area businesses, organizations and individuals.

 

A dining promotion called "Dinner With the Masters" will be running from October 9, 2009 until January 10, 2010.  Bring your ticket or ticket stub from the exhibit to one of 18 participating downtown Syracuse restaurants and receive 3 courses for $25 or less.  Visit http://downtownsyracuse.com/static/C2/ for more information.
