Meghan did an amazing tourthat got us through the highlights of the Portrait Gallery and Art Museum with plenty of time to discuss and put the art in context. She provided information about the picture or artist that we would never have known from the descriptive annotations! She is a self described "Art History Geek" and provided great insight into the women artists!
