Explore four ancient Greek myths — Medusa, Hercules, Callisto, and the Judgement of Paris — in a class that also looks at artworks illustrating each myth and culminates with a private art tour at the Getty Villa. The stories have been told and retold over time, with changes in details and emphasis that say more about the mores of each era than about the myths themselves. Find out about ekphrasis, reacting to art by creating new art, and try your hand at poetry, prose, and even sketching to create our own responses to these stories. No prior experience is required; just bring your curiosity and enthusiasm!
Parking at the Villa requires an additional fee.
