Event Details

Art historian and artist Sean Crum discusses some of the more infamous incidents from the dark side of the art world, from the famous art forger Han van Meegeren, the theft of the Mona Lisa, and the still unsolved art thefts from the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum in Boston.

Sean Crum has been a professional artist and musician for nearly 40 years. He has a Bachelor of Art degree from Cleveland State University and a Master of Arts degree from Case Western Reserve University.

This free program is part of our lifelong learning series, Empowered Minds. The focus of this signature service is healthy aging and enrichment for the retirement-age citizens of Licking County. All adults are welcome. Empowered Minds is supported by a sustaining gift from Robert Trimble Jr., a lifelong learner, and, in part, by Licking County Senior Levy. Donations are appreciated.
