Please join us for a weekend celebrating Wanda Corn, the Robert and Ruth Halperin Professor Emerita in Art History. During her nearly thirty-year tenure at Stanford, Professor Corn not only reshaped the field of American art history but served a term as Director of the Stanford Humanities Center and another as Acting Director of the Stanford Museum (now called the Cantor Arts Center). This free, two-day symposium, led by friends and the many art historians she trained, honors her scholarship, her pedagogy and her countless contributions to both art history and the university.
All events are free and open to the public. No registration or tickets are required. For full event schedule, go to website.
