We'll meet tomorrow afternoon in our customary classroom, but Sunday is the official opening. Remember: if you come (and participate in our discussion after the lecture), it will count as class session. This means you could miss a class later in the semester without penalty. You'll need to arrive in the East Building Auditorium no later than 1:45. I recommend 1:30. We'll talk about it in class.
For tomorrow's class, in addition to the reading in Flanders and Sweet, remember to read Simon Poe's review on our pdf dropcanvas site. It's the last file, so scroll down.
Lastly, here's the link to the NGA's press preview kit: PRB at NGA. Included is a useful checklist of items in the exhibition. I'll also put this link in the "Central Resources" section of online readings.
Let me know if you have questions before tomorrow's class. And, yes, I will introduce the first essay assignment.
