On Friday, July 13, the Whitney will host Visual Arts and the AIDS Epidemic, a symposium that takes its name from an oral history project by the Smithsonian’s Archives of American Art. The symposium welcomes conversations with artists, activists, and oral historians on memories of the AIDS crisis in the 1980s and ‘90s. Learn more on whitney.org.
