Interesting encounter

Information Desk Volunteer LeeAnn Matthews had an interesting encounter at the American Art Museum on Oct. 19:

“Julia Roberts came for a special tour of the Norman Rockwell show led by curator Virginia Mecklenburg.  She and her entourage spent an hour or so in the show. All we could do was look since she didn’t stop by the desk.”
