Welcome
 

Want to learn more about the sometimes confusing but always fascinating world of Oriental rugs?

Join Carnig Minasian for beginner through advanced level seminars on rug identification and valuation, history and culture, technical structure and design. This course is part of Northwestern University's Fine and Decorative Arts program, which is designed with both nuts-and-bolts art appraisal courses as well as  academic courses about a variety of art forms, including folk art, photography, furniture, decorative arts, and painting.
