Explore the world both near and far through our Art Escapes travel program.
May 11–May 19, 2024
Travel with us to this beautiful city for eight magical days and nights filled with some of the most special and exclusive experiences Paris has to offer. CMA’s new Executive Director and CEO, Brooke Minto, will be joined by consulting curator Ann Dumas, curator at the Royal Academy in London, to lead us through a variety of private museum visits, day trips outside the city, and culinary experiences.
We’ve scheduled this trip in advance of the busy Paris travel season which will increase toward the end of May with the French Open and preparation for the Summer Olympics. The time is right so reserve your spot now!
We’ll stay in a 5-star boutique hotel in the emblematic district of Saint-Germain-des-Prés, the heart of the Left Bank. Saint-Germain-des-Prés has a vibrant and cosmopolitan yet village-like feel. With its mix of culture and heritage, everything is at your doorstep – cafés, brasseries, luxury boutiques, art galleries, street markets and the beautiful and cherished Luxembourg Gardens. Our schedule will allow you time to do some exploring, eating, and shopping on your own in this charming neighborhood.
Some highlights of this magnificent trip will include:
