Our Tuesday Tea lecture series starts up again next week! Printmaker and painter Charles Ritchie, who has kept an illustrated journal since 1977, will discuss time as a touchstone for his work, as seen in the exhibition Time Well Spent: Art and Temporality. Ritchie is an associate curator at the National Gallery of Art.
Tuesday Teas are held on the second Tuesday of the month beginning at 2:30 p.m. Each talk is followed by tea and cookies in the East Gallery.
A list of this semester’s speakers can be found online here.
