Join us for a thoughtful and engaging introduction to the art of collecting, including looking at, examining and assessing art from a collector's point of view. Mr. Stern will share his experience as well as the basics of art collection that can turn an art aficionado into a Connoisseur. A Connoisseur is defined as a person who is especially competent to pass critical judgments in art, particularly the visual arts. 

Jean Stern is Director Emeritus, The Irvine Museum, and a nationally recognized authority on California Impressionism. In his career, Mr. Stern has presented over 250 lectures and judged and juried more than 100 local, national, and international art competitions. in 2017, Mr. Stern received the prestigious Chevalier of the Order of Arts and Letters from the French Ministry of Culture.
