Norman Rockwell's Models: In and Out of the Studio
Thursday, March 30, 7pm
The Bennington Bookshop and The Bennington Free Library are pleased to host Stephen Haggerty on Thursday, March 30, at 7 p.m. at the Bennington Free Library, 101 Silver Street. Haggerty will discuss his new book, Norman Rockwell's Models: In and Out of the Studio. The book details Rockwell’s models’ lives, friendships with the artist, and experiences in his studio. Haggerty spent summers at his family’s farmhouse near West Arlington, Vermont, and he grew up knowing many models, including those who posed for such iconic works as Freedom of Speech, Breaking Home Ties, and Girl at the Mirror. Books will be available for sale at the event.
