Academic Enrichment Opportunity : Visit the Getty Villa in Malibu.
Admission to the Getty Villa is free but due to popularity it is often difficult to get tickets. Go to the Getty website http://getty.edu/visit/ for additional information to plan your visit. In order to receive extra credit you must turn in a picture of yourself at the Getty and a written one-page critique for one piece of artwork, a garden, a structure, a sculpture.
