October Book: "The Girl with the Pearl Earring" by Tracy Chevalier.

Book Pick Up: Wednesday, October 1
Vermeer-Inspired Art Class: Thursday, October 30
Fee: $50; $40 Members (Includes Book + Art Class)
HMA has partnered with My Chapter House in Downtown Hickory to launch an ongoing Book & Art Club. Each month, participants will begin reading a new book on the 1st. On the 4th Thursday of the month, we’ll meet at My Chapter House for an art project inspired by that month’s book.
Author Tracy Chevalier transports readers to 17th-century Delft, Holland, in her richly imagined historical novel "Girl with a Pearl Earring" (1999). Inspired by Johannes Vermeer’s iconic painting "Girl with a Pearl Earring", Chevalier crafts a fictional account of the young woman who posed for the masterpiece, bringing to life the artist, his household, and the world surrounding the creation of the painting.
History and fiction merge seamlessly in this luminous novel about artistic vision and sensual awakening. "Girl with a Pearl Earring" tells the story of sixteen-year-old Griet, whose life is transformed by her brief encounter with genius—even as she herself is immortalized in canvas and oil.
Chapter Coffee Co. will be open until 6 PM so grab a coffee or chai tea to enjoy while we create art!
