Trips for Art Lovers
Art has the ability to convey a textbook’s worth of information in a single instant, and that is what makes art such a useful tool for exploring a new culture. Art has the power to cut straight to the core of an issue or topic without the need for words. It often spans language barriers and connects us all on a deeper level. On these ATC Trips, there’s no need for an art degree, only a fondness and appreciation for all things beautiful.
