The Cafesjian Art Trust is a new public institution featuring the private art collection of Gerard Cafesjian. His 3000+ pieces of art include Contemporary and Modern paintings and sculpture, as well as one of the most impressive collections of art glass sculpture in the world. Masterworks by well-known Modern and Contemporary artists such as Victor Vasarely, Georges Braque, Joan Miro, Arshile Gorky and many others are also represented in the collection as well as a chandelier by Dale Chihuly. The exhibit in November will be Collidoscope: de la Torre Brothers Retro-Perspective.

We will take a guided 30 minute tour of the Museum and then have time to explore on your own. After the museum, join us for lunch at the Churchill Street Restaurant, a brunch and dinner restaurant, coffee bar, market and community gathering place in Shoreview, Minnesota. They serve scratch-made modern classics using sustainable, local and seasonal ingredients as often as possible. 

THIS IS A "DRIVE ON YOUR OWN DAY TRIP" - THERE WILL NOT BE  A BUS. 
Upon Registration there will be a car pooling option.
