Map of the route

Please see the map below for the exact locations of the museums and hotels that we will visit during the study trip.

Boston

Interested in visiting the exhibition Class Distinctions. Dutch Painting in the Age of Rembrandt and Vermeer at the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston during your visit in the USA? Enjoy a preview of the exhibition guided by Ronni Baer – curator of the exhibition and CODART member – on Saturday, 10 October. You can find more information here and here. Please note that this visit is not part of the official study trip program and thus CODART will not provide transportation to, in, from, or around Boston, nor lodgings.

Request works

Any need to see certain works (paintings or works on paper) for study purposes? Please let us know before 7 September 2015 and we will contact the respective curators in order to find out the possibilities.

Transportation

During the trip, the group will travel together by bus from Detroit to Chicago via all the museums and hotels mentioned in the program. Bus transportation (Mon-Fri) is arranged by CODART and is included in the study trip fee. CODART will not arrange flights or other means of travel to Boston or Detroit, nor from Chicago. For questions please do not hesitate to contact us.

Hotels

The group will stay at very convenient four or five star hotels, either downtown or close to the museum. Most of the hotels were recommended to us by our ‘local’ CODART members and thanks to their contacts we have been able to make good arrangements with special venues, varying from a 1910 mansion in Cleveland to the legendary Netherland Plaza in Cincinnati. You can find the various hotels mentioned on the program. Would you like to book an extra night after the trip in our hotel in Chicago? We still have a few rooms left for the group rate.
