Women in Art

Celebrate Women's History month through an informal conversation at LACMA about art made by or about important women in history. Then head to the Surfas Test Kitchen (8777 Washington Blvd/corner of National) to prepare a meal inspired by significant cookbooks of the centuries including Mary Randolph's The Virginia House-Wife, Fannie Farmer's Boston Cooking-School Cook Book, Julia Child's Mastering the Art of French Cooking, and Claudia Roden's A Book of Middle Eastern Food.

Please note that though this class meets at LACMA it is not LACMA organized.
