Join us the third Thursday of every month for coffee and conversation followed by a lecture or film screening. This month, Maribeth Graybill, Ph.D., The Arlene and Harold Schnitzer Curator of Asian Art, will highlight objects from the collection of the architect and conservationist John Yeon featured in the special exhibition, Quest for Beauty: The Architecture, Landscapes, and Collections of John Yeon.
