Michelangelo Buonarroti didn’t consider himself a painter, and he tried desperately to get out of painting the Sistine Chapel ceiling, but it is hard to refuse the command of the pope — especially Pope Julius II. Join Angela K. Nickerson, author of A Journey into Michelangelo’s Rome, as she weaves the story of this battle between a powerful pope and a masterful artist — a battle which resulted in one of the most iconic and celebrated achievements in Italian art.

Michelangelo grew up in Florence, Italy where he learned how to draw and to paint and to sculpt and to tell stories by studying the works of great artists. Bring your family and experience Michelangelo’s frescoes from the Sistine Chapel up close, and join Angela K. Nickerson, author of A Journey into Michelangelo’s Rome, for an interactive conversation about storytelling and art that will get your creative juices flowing. Children of all ages are welcome!
