About this event

Fascinating Easter Islandone of the most remote places on earthis famous for its gigantic stone figures that date back many centuries. Situated in the middle of the South Pacific, this island is one of the most remote inhabited places in the world. But, it is definitely worth a visit. Easter Island (or Rapa Nui as it is more properly called) is home to the most amazing sculptures known as moai. How were these massive heads created? How were they moved? And what else can we learn about Rapa Nui? 

 

Our guide, Lee Rubinstein, visited Easter Island recently. She holds dual degrees in English and History with a minor in Art History. She has been leading tours at The Getty since 2012 and has given many virtual tours to FHNN and LFV. Additionally, she runs a year-long volunteer art program at a public school with disadvantaged pupils. 


Free and Open to All.
