Join the 2025–2026 SAAM Fellows for a thought-provoking series of talks that span of range of topics, time periods, media, and messages. This multi-afternoon program offers a unique opportunity to hear from a new generation of scholars who are delving into the Smithsonian’s collections and archives to uncover fresh perspectives on U.S.-American art.
The lectures will be held in person, in McEvoy Auditorium, and on Youtube.
