Art History Offscreen
Building on the first iteration of this event last year, Art History Offscreen will consist of a series of short presentations by members of our faculty. The name is intended to signal the event's in-person and informal nature: participants were invited to fill a thirty-minute slot however they wished. The goal is to foster connections within the department that can extend well beyond a single afternoon, and so we will forgo a formal Q&A and instead use the break and reception to talk with our speakers.
This year, we have three traditional presentations in CWAC 157. The schedule is posted below. I hope to see many of you there!
