Lectures on Antiquities
The Museum presents lectures throughout the year that celebrate the current Museum exhibitions as well as the Museum’s collection of ancient art. We draw in scholars from around the world to discuss their expertise in modern art or share new discoveries in ancient art. The Antiquities lecture series is supported by the Antiquites Circle.
