    Gallery talk with Ivan Gaskell, Margaret S. Winthrop Curator, Department of Paintings, Sculpture and Decorative Arts, Harvard Art Museum/Fogg Museum and senior lecturer, Department of History, Harvard University

    It may seem unusual to include a Native American archer's bow, on loan from Harvard's Peabody Museum of Archaeology and Ethnology, in an exhibition of European and American art. Ivan Gaskell will discuss the thinking behind the bow's placement and ambitions to incorporate other Native American objects in the galleries of the Harvard Art Museum.

    Free admission (admission is free for everyone on Saturdays before noon).
    Gallery talks are informal and include discussion.
