American Art Come See Why We're a Melting Pot of Culture and Art
Beginning with the Native Americans and their arts and crafts and continuing through American artistic families and regional art, this class will prove that not all art has to be French Impressionist or Renaissance Italian to be great. American art has influenced Western art not only through its diversity, but also by absorbing international art and creating new artistic forms. The class will even explore hip hop, which many consider to be avant-garde art for the 21st century.

History of Eating
The story of our fruits and vegetables is the story of people-explorers, colonizers, missionaries, conquerors, plant hunters, botanists, and frontiersmen-who carried seeds and shoots and plants around the world. "As American as apple pie," the saying goes, but apples aren't American and neither are peaches, pears, or peas. However, the Americas contributed much to the world. Learn what common fruit we eat nearly every day that was declared a vegetable by the U.S. Supreme Court. What common vegetable did English women wear in their hair? Come find out so you can share with others.
