Lectures
About the Program
The Nasher Museum hosts lively lectures and panel discussions to complement exhibitions and the collection. The Annual Barbra and Andrew Rothschild Lecture and the Annual Semans Lecture are delivered by artists, curators and scholars. The Directors Series brings art museum directors to talk about their experiences and work at major institutions. In keeping with Duke University’s campus-wide health and safety measures to curb the spread of the COVID-19 virus, all lectures and talks are virtual now and will be listed on this page before they occur.
