On September 29th, those that could make it from the crew at Old Rose took a trip to the Norton Simon Art Museum in downtown Pasadena. Every now and then our crew will take a trip to have some fun bonding time as well as immerse ourselves in a new visual culture for learning and inspiration.

As stated on the museum’s website nortonsimon.org, “The Norton Simon Museum is home to one of the world’s most remarkable private art collections ever assembled. Over a 30-year period, the industrialist Norton Simon (1907–1993) amassed an impressive group of European masterworks from the Renaissance to the 20th century, and a stellar collection of South and Southeast Asian art spanning 2,000 years. Modern works from Europe and the United States, acquired by the former Pasadena Art Museum, also occupy an important place in the Museum’s holdings.”

See the gallery below for some of our artists’ favorite pieces, or visit the website for a closer look at what the museum has to offer.
