Bonnie Bernau: Art for Life

The Harn Museum of Art, as one of the top 10 university art museums in the nation, has an outreach program for senior citizens called Art for Life. The program provides seniors who may be unable to visit the museum an opportunity to benefit from the Harn’s offerings through educational activities and visuals brought to their residences and centers. This distinctive program delivers the best of the museum on the campus into the community, complementing the educational mission of the Harn and the University of Florida's life-long learning goal.
