With it’s newly renovated exterior and updated displays throughout, we invite you to step back in time as you tour the two-and-a-half-story house filled with artistic legacy and family history. Discover the creative world of the Gag family through interactive exhibits and educational programs. Visit the attic artist’s studio, skylights, and open turrets that inspired Wanda Gag’s imagination. Beyond her renowned children’s book “Millions of Cats”, Wanda Gág’s artistic legacy continues to inspire artists and art enthusiasts internationally, and, thus, she remains a prominent figure in the global art world. Her artworks have been showcased in prestigious institutions such as the Philadelphia Museum of Art, the British Museum and the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA), reflecting her compassionate portrayal of everyday life. This tour is a tie-in to our CAST Documentary Program from Tuesday, August 5, “Wanda and the Youngsters”. Hosted by the CAST Senior Center, CAST Educational Programs were developed to reach a wide audience of senior citizens, providing a variety of interesting subjects via in-person presentations and experiences. Scheduled year-round, we host programs at the CAST Senior Center, but also travel to area libraries, museums, places of interest, and other Senior/Community Centers in our area to introduce Seniors to the many program opportunities that are available. Our programs are open to the public and there are no membership dues. Unless noted, the programs are provided free and no preregistration is required. Carpooling is available for out-of-town trips.
