Join us for An Afternoon with Chris Martin, the sixth-generation owner of the iconic guitar manufacturer C. F. Martin & Co. Founded in 1833 in New York City, C. F. Martin & Co. has been making the world’s finest acoustic guitars for nearly two hundred years. Chris will bring incredible prototypes from his personal collection at the Martin Guitar Museum and share stories from his thirty-five years at the helm of this American brand. 

For his special talk in association with Storied Strings: The Guitar in American Art, Chris will share about the art of guitars, showing unique instruments that are hand-painted, adorned with jewels, and inlay from his extensive collection. Audience members will get to hear from artist Robert Goetzl, who has painted several instruments for Martin, and hear the priceless instruments played by Martin clinician and singer/songwriter Craig Thatcher.
