Designed to fit neatly into a workday lunch hour, this special program invites guests to learn, connect, and be inspired by the world of art—all while enjoying a delicious themed meal.
This year’s luncheon will spotlight beloved American painter and illustrator Norman Rockwell (1894–1978), whose iconic images captured the essence of everyday life for generations. Hannibal artist Pat Kerns will present a lively, biographical program exploring Rockwell’s life, career, and enduring impact. The Mark Twain Museum & Gallery—home to Rockwell’s original illustrations for special 1935 editions of The Adventures of Tom Sawyer and Adventures of Huckleberry Finn—offers a fitting backdrop for the event.
Prior to the presentation, guests will enjoy an Americana Picnic prepared by HAC’s The Food Crew:
- New York Deli Chicken Salad
- Kipferl Bread Roll
- Four Seasons Chopped Salad
- Blueberry Hand Pies
- Beverages included.
