The Art of Love—A Letter from Saint Valentine
From Aphrodite and Helen of Troy to Hallmark and Norman Rockwell, come along on a lighthearted romp through the subject of love and romance in art. Ponder the mysteries of the real Saint Valentine, learn how the ❤️ was invented, and enjoy great artists’ takes on True Love, from Rodin and Renoir to Koons and Banksy. Join art historian Craig Griffeath for this unique and enchanting Valentine’s Day presentation.

Craig Griffeath produced and taught art history programs for 25 years at Academy of Art University. He holds a Masters in Humanities from Dominican University and a Certificate in Western Arts Education from the Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco, where he served on the Docent Council from 1992-2004. Since retiring and moving to Sonoma in 2021, Craig has continued to develop new programs to bring the story of art into the life of the community.
