Get ready for the 2024-2025 season of Cinéma Art Historique! This free-admission film series is designed to explore the connections between art history and cinema. After each screening, enjoy a Q&A and discussion with Dr. Alex Rich, Executive Director and Chief Curator, about how the evening's film aligns with the histories and stories it strives to tell.
On Saturday, September 21, we’re kicking the season off with The Da Vinci Code. Based on the best-selling novel by Dan Brown, the film finds American symbologist and professor Robert Langdon (played by Tom Hanks) at the center of a murder investigation. Eluding capture, Langdon uses the strange cipher found on the victim’s body to embark on a quest for the Holy Grail. As the journey wears on, new clues and revelations emerge, rewriting history in the process.
Registration is required, and space is limited. The film screening and Q&A will be held in the Ashley Gibson Barnett Museum of Art's Auditorium. Registration opens approximately 90 days before the event date!
