Art Tour
March 8 - 11, 2012 from Ottawa
Since 1992 our annual art trip or art tour to New York City is offered every spring, usually during the second or the third week of March. During this time of the year New York offers a marvelous variety of exhibits ranging from the classical and modern to the contemporary and the “very now”! New York Art Trip lasts three nights and four days; departing from Ottawa on Thursday early morning and returning to Ottawa on Sunday night. People from all over the United States and Canada can join us as many have done in the past. Our price includes three nights in a beautifully located hotel in Midtown Manhattan, all transportation by deluxe coach Ottawa-New York-Ottawa (deducted if participants are from outside Ottawa) and to all museums and sites on schedule; and an art confrence before departure. We do group reservations for the major museums and exhibits, so our participants can enjoy a fast entrance and a reduced fare. Participants are free to visit New York at their own pace and to join the group for the art museums and exhibits of their choice. (> the prospectus)
