MAX has arranged a guided docent tour of two celebrated museums, the Anderson Collection and the Cantor Arts Center at Stanford University in Palo Alto. Museums are located one block apart and about 36 miles south of San Francisco. 

Anderson Collection contains an outstanding private assembly of modern and contemporary American art. The collection is anchored in the work of Abstract Expressionists like Jackson Pollock and extends to contemporary painters such as Terry Winters, Sean Scully and Julie Mehretu. For more information, go to: https://anderson.stanford.edu/



The Cantor’s collection spans 5,000 years and includes more than 38,000 works of art from around the globe. It features 24 galleries and numerous special exhibitions. Current exhibits include The Faces of Ruth Asawa; Printing Protest; Reality Makes Them Dream: American Photography 1929-1941, and; Richard Diebenkorn’s paintings and sketchbooks. The museum also features the Rodin Sculpture Garden, Richard Serra's Sequence and Richard Diebenkorn’s paintings and sketchbooks that shed light on Diebenkorn's process. For more information on the Cantor, go to: https://museum.stanford.edu/exhibitions

Event is limited to 20 people, so dues-paying members will have first priority. Registration initially will be opened only to dues-paying members and a guest. Non-members will be able to register about a month later. A waitlist will be made available for cancellations. 

The tour is free, but you must register and pay a $20 fee to reserve your spot. The reservation fee will be refunded at the museum. NO REFUNDS for cancellations after July 6. Register by clicking on the link:  https://maxsf.org/event-5269756

The docent tour is an hour for each museum and begins promptly at the Anderson Collection at 314 Lomita Drive, Stanford.  Please arrive on time. After both tours, we will have an optional lunch at the cafeteria in the Cantor. Thereafter, attendees can resume viewing the museums, and/or casually tour  the Stanford campus. Nearby parking is free in the garage and street on weekends except for the resident student lots.
