Last year, we offered a field trip to the Getty Villa that included a tour and scavenger hunt designed around the collection. I think that we'll do something similar this year, though now focusing on the Lion.

Lion Attacking a Horse at the Getty Villa
Another shameless Getty Villa plug: the Lion Attacking a Horse exhibition has just opened, featuring the eponymous statue on loan from the Capitoline Museum in Rome, and will be featured until 2/4, 2013. The video below details its installation in the Villa's atrium.
On Thursday, 8/23 at 3pm (with repeats on 9/20, 10/25, 11/29, and 12/20), Villa curators will lead free 45min. gallery talks on the piece and its installation. Additionally, they will offer a $35 ($28 for students) course on Saturday, 12/8 at 1pm on the history and iconography of this fantastic sculpture.
