Join Anita Rafael, co-author of For the Love of Vermont, for a special guided tour of Southern Vermont Arts Center’s celebrated For the Love of Vermont: The Lyman Orton Collection. Offered on the first Wednesday of each month, these tours provide an intimate opportunity to discover the stories, artists, and artworks that make the collection such a remarkable portrait of Vermont.
Drawing on her deep knowledge of the collection and her experience co-authoring the accompanying book, Anita will share stories and insights that illuminate the artworks, the artists who made them, and the Vermont they depict.
