John French Sloan arrived in Greenwich Village in 1904 and joyfully proceeded to observe and record in oils the rollicking daily life of the neighborhood. Along with his painter friends, dubbed “The Ashcan School,” Sloan changed American art forever.
Join artist and historian Marc Kehoe to see locations painted by Sloan, the sites of his various studios, and the Village corners and alleys that inspired the Ashcan School painters to create their extraordinary work. The tour ends at McSorley’s Old Ale House, a recurring subject for Sloan.
Meet: Under the Washington Square Arch, Fifth Avenue/Washington Square North
