COURSE OFFERING

Collections + Obsessions

Fridays, January 15, 2010 – February 19, 2010

9:00 - 11:00 a.m.

UNC Asheville’s College for Seniors, Center for Creative Retirement

What is a collection? What is the difference between an “obsession” and a “collection” or “acquirer” and “collector”? How might private collections differ from collections held for the public trust? Together we will explore these questions while studying in depth personal collections, current Asheville Art Museum exhibitions, selected films and books. The course includes a tour of the Museum. Please contact UNC Asheville’s College for Seniors directly at 828.251.6140 to register and pay for this class.

Held in conjunction with the exhibitions Looking Back and Looking Forward.
