Reference Materials

This area is used to post materials from or for specific OLLI classes, though all are welcome to view them. 

It can be used to:

    Post Powerpoint slides that were shown in class so that students can review them later;

    Provide extra sources of information not covered in class;

    Make material available before the start of a class.


American Art at the Smithsonian (Fall 2013)

ART2, fall 2013, taught by videoconference by Smithsonian Museum docents

The lectures are posted below in two forms.  The pdf version makes a smaller file and is more portable to all computers. (If you can't read a pdf file on your computer, google "free Acrobat Reader" and download or update the free Reader program.) The Powerpoint version requires you to have that program installed on your computer, but it includes text notes for many of the slides.  You can't see the text notes in the pdf version.
