A beautiful and exciting museum tour through Europe. Past Review
By A student (Humanities, Brigham Young University) - abroad from 06/17/2012 to 08/02/2012 with
Internships in London
I learned a lot about the art that I saw, I also learned about creating that art. I feel like it was definitely worthwhile. I learned about European history and saw art that I have studied in classes. I connected with artists from hundreds of years ago and was touched by their skill and the emotions they provoked.
