The Museums at Washington and Lee University will host a virtual gallery talk titled “Women in the Arts: Out of the Margins, Into the Light.” The event is free and open to the public to watch online.
The gallery talk features W&L’s Clover Archer, director of the Staniar Gallery, Patricia Hobbs, senior curator of arts, and Domnica Radulescu, Edwin A. Morris Professor of Comparative Literatures on April 7 at 5:30 p.m.
Advance registration is required and can be accessed at tiny.cc/GT2.
The panel will examine women in the arts using examples from W&L’s art collection and the performing arts. The group will discuss women artists’ social and political commentary and the challenges that face them as trailblazers.
