Working in the first half of the 20th century, the New Hampshire artist Maxfield Parrish skyrocketed to success as an illustrator with his distinct saturated hues and neoclassical themes. On Wednesday, May 22 at 6 PM, we welcome back (virtually via Zoom) art educator Jane Oneail to give us an overview of the artist’s life, inspiration, and artistic output. Maxfield's prolific career helped to shape the Golden Age of Illustration in the US, and his fantastic landscapes and ethereal figures transported audiences to other realms.

Jane Oneail (pronounced OH-neel) is the founder of Culturally Curious, a company that curates and presents art appreciation. Jane holds a master’s in Art History from Boston University and a master’s in Education from Harvard University. Born and raised in NH, she has worked at some of the state's most esteemed cultural institutions, including the League of New Hampshire Craftsmen, where she served as Executive Director, and the Currier Museum of Art, where she held the role of Senior Educator. Jane has also taught at the college level for more than a decade, most recently at Southern New Hampshire University. For more information, visit iamculturallycurious.com
