BSLUG Outing to New Wing at the Gardner Museum Sun. April 22, 11 a.m.

Lunch Post-Gardner Museum Visit

Join your fellow BSLUGS as we check out the much acclaimed Renzo Piano-designed wing at the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum. We'll have plenty of time to also visit the gorgeous courtyard gardens and world-renown surrounding galleries.  Afterwards at 1 p.m., we'll have lunch nearby at the Squealing Pig.

The 70,000 square foot new wing "incorporates ample glazed surfaces, bringing plenty of natural light to the open, interior gallery spaces, as well as allowing for uninterrupted views to the historic building and surrounding gardens." (see Euginie Kwan, 1/17/12)

If you've been waiting for the right time to see what all the hoopla has been about, this is it!
