The 2023 Wellesley/Deerfield Symposium
Saturday March 4, 2023
Collins Cinema (in person) and on Zoom
9:00 am - 5:00 pm
Join the Art Department and the Wellesley College Architecture Program for the 2023 Wellesley/Deerfield symposium, Homemaking: Race, Place, & Ethnicity in the New England Household.
This one-day symposium will explore the visual and material cultures of race and ethnicity in New England's domestic sphere from the 17th to the 20th centuries. Cultural and racial diversity have long characterized New England's domestic environments, and symposium participants will present research on the varied ways in which the region's households were shaped by perceptions of, ideas about, and attitudes towards race and ethnicity.
The symposium will be a hybrid event this year, where attendees can choose to come in person to see the talks in Collins Cinema, or can watch remotely on Zoom. Registration is required for both in-person and virtual attendance. Register here to attend!
