Art and Architecture History at the Krebs Center

Course times: Thursday evenings, 5:30-7:30 p.m.
Course dates: September 10, September 17, September 24, October 1, October 8
Held at the historic Krebs Center for the Humanities, this series will explore the traditions of Renaissance form, ornament, spatial organization, material culture, and visual symbolism that shaped how buildings and objects were made, inhabited, and interpreted. Along the way, participants will apply what they have learned directly to the Krebs Center and its collection, asking how the villa itself accumulates meaning, displays taste, and shapes our encounters with history. Each session will begin with a social reception featuring food and refreshments.
Both the educational content and social receptions will offer opportunities to build community, engage with College leadership, and learn more about ongoing campus initiatives.
