When the Rose Art Museum proposed its plan to close and sell its invaluable 8,000-piece collection to close university budget gaps, Francine Miller became an outspoken critic in favor of its preservation.
As both a respected Boston-area art critic and a Brandeis alumnus, Miller's attempt to save the Rose, one of the country's most visited university art museums, was a cause very dear to her. The results of her efforts have kept the museum intact for its fiftieth year, and have culminated in a book documenting its rise from recession.
Join us as we host Francine Miller for a discussion of the book her publisher called "a very local story with national implications."
