Greetings!
Happy New Year!
What do the arts mean for non-artists? How do they make a difference in our lives?
Join us in January as Cambridge Forum continues its new series "My Life Touched
by Art." We cannot all be artists, but our lives are all touched by art. Meet
some people who have "rubbed shoulders with art" throughout their careers, starting
with
Wendy Lesser on January 22.

Why I Read: The Serious Pleasure of Books
January 22 @ 7pm
Author and essayist Wendy Lesser explores the ways that literature and, especially,
poetry touch readers and change their lives, as she discusses her latest book Why
I Read. In a culture that is increasingly visual and virtual in orientation,
what role does old-fashioned reading play? What power does the written word have
in our lives?
This program is part of the series of My Life Touched by Art, supported by a grant
from the Cambridge Arts Council and the Massachusetts Cultural Council, a public
agency.

Stolen Art
Art security expert Anthony Amore discusses the crime of art theft and the ways
that the intangible value of the stolen objects affects efforts to locate and
retrieve them. Conservator Ingrid Neumanjoins the conversation to explore the threat
that theft poses to the physical materials that art works are made from.
What makes stealing art different from other kinds of theft? How does the art
itself change the way its caretakers-the security expert or the conservator-approach
their jobs?
February 5 @ 7pm
