This past weekend some 25 91����� Aquinas College students and tutors enjoyed an educational tour of one of Southern California�s finest art museums, thanks to the generosity of College Governor Maria O. Grant.

Saturday�s visit to the Getty Villa in the Pacific Palisades was one of three such outings arranged and sponsored by Mrs. Grant, who is a Museum Educator at the Norton Simon Museum and previously served as an Overseer at the Huntington Library in San Marino. In November the group visited the Getty Center in Los Angeles, with Mrs. Grant leading the tour. Later this month it will visit Norton Simon Museum in Pasadena.

The tours, which focus on works of art that bear a connection to the works students read in the College�s classical curriculum, are becoming something of a College tradition. Mrs. Grant first began leading them in 2010 in order to supplement the College�s curriculum and because, as she put it, �We have access to some of the best museums in the world.�
