Allan Hancock College Offers Bus Trip to Descanso Gardens, Norton Simon Museum
Allan Hancock College Community Education is offering a bus trip to Descanso Gardens in La Cañada Flintridge and the Norton Simon Museum in Pasadena on Friday, May 3.
The Norton Simon Museum houses seven centuries of European art by distinguished artists such as Monet, Renoir, van Gogh and Cézanne. The museum’s 20th century collection features works by Picasso, Matisse and Goya. Also on display are South and Southeast Asian sculptures and paintings spanning 2,000 years.
After a morning of art viewing, the trip continues to Descanso Gardens, an urban retreat of year-round natural beauty, renowned botanical collections and spectacular seasonal horticultural displays. Explore the posh environs of the historic Boddy House, which offers a glimpse of a glamorous bygone era, and the Sturt Haaga Gallery, a composition of both historic and contemporary sustainable design.
The bus will leave Allan Hancock College at 7:15 a.m. and return by 10 p.m. The cost is $62 and does not include meals. An itinerary will be sent to registered students one week prior to the trip.
