Program Description

Event Details

Join us as Michael Norris, former curator at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, guides us through the pictorial history of St. Patrick, one of the most recognizable religious figures in the world. Through art and archaeology, we’ll examine the ancient Britain that was ruled by Rome for centuries. Then we’ll consider the life and letters of its most famous citizen, a Roman Briton named Patrick, and the fifth-century Ireland he knew as a slave and as a missionary.
