Scarsdale Adult School kicks off the new term on Wednesday, September 1, 2021, with Page Knox's museum virtual visit to the Frick Madison (Course 10625), the temporary new home to the Frick's masterpieces while the Frick Collection undergoes renovation. This distinctly modern stone and concrete building is the former site of the Met Breuer and, previously, the Whitney Museum of American Art.

Later that same day, Francis Morrone narrates a virtual tour of the Met's immensely popular exhibit, The Medici: Portraits & Politics, 1512–1570 (Course 10715). The class is suitable as a preview for those who intend to see it in person or as a recap for museum goers who have already had the pleasure of exploring this outstanding assortment of Florentine artwork.
