HISTIOCYTE SOCIETY SPECIAL EVENTS

Welcome Reception

The Histiocyte Society Welcome Reception, sponsored by the Histiocytosis Association of America will be held at the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum on Monday, October 18, 2010 from 8pm - 11pm. All registered meeting attendees will receive one ticket included in their registration packet.

Isabella Stewart Gardner first welcomed visitors to her museum on New Year’s Day, 1903. On that evening guests listened to the music of Bach, Mozart, and Schumann, gazed in wonder at the courtyard full of flowers, and viewed one of the nation’s finest collections of art.  Today, visitors experience much the same thing. The Gardner Museum has remained essentially unchanged since its founder’s death in 1924. Unchanged but certainly not stagnant. Three floors of galleries surround a garden courtyard blooming with life in all seasons. The galleries are filled with paintings, sculptures, tapestries, furniture and decorative arts from cultures spanning thirty centuries.
