Renew your spirit with beautiful artwork Easter weekend. Easter Weekend Open House at the Charles Hosmer Morse Museum in Winter Park grants free access to all the galleries at Morse including the beautiful glass masterpieces by Louis Comfort Tiffany. The Museum’s Tiffany collection includes jewelry, pottery, paintings, art glass, leaded-glass windows and lamps, and the chapel interior the artist designed for the 1893 World’s Columbian Exposition in Chicago.

During your free day at the Museum, make sure to check out the newest exhibition “Lifelines—Forms and Themes of Art Nouveau.” Art Nouveau was an art phenomenon that found enthusiastic support virtually everywhere in Europe and, to a lesser extent, in America from roughly 1895 to 1915. It touched art and architecture, as well as ceramics, furniture, and the other decorative arts.
