12–1 PM
Free with Museum admission

Since the early days of the medium in the nineteenth century, photographers have documented the concerns and problems of the world around them. Milton Rogovin, whose work is on view in the exhibition Life and Labor, was motivated to expose the plight of the poor and working class. Ken Light, Reva and David Logan Professor of Photojournalism at the Graduate School of Journalism at the University of California, Berkeley, will speak about artists who similarly have championed social causes in their art.

Lunchtime Lectures take place on the first Wednesday of the month at noon in the Charlotte Wendel Education Center. Visitors are welcome to bring food and beverages.
