The Ringling Launches Museum From Home
Head of Education Laura Steefel-Moore joins Sarasota nurse Dan Brooks for an Art Chat about the painting “Act of Mercy: Giving Drink to the Thirsty” by Bernardo Strozzi (Italian, 1581-1644) and what it’s like to work through the coronavirus as a healthcare professional.
Art Chats are short conversations about artworks between a museum educator and someone working outside the museum field. The artworks are selected from The Ringling Collection by the educator and tailored to the specific guest. Do you know someone who you want to see in an Art Chat? Email education@ringling.org.
