October 5 Spotlight Series Details

Dear Advisory Council Members,

Thank you again to those of you who joined us Friday for our first fall virtual meeting of the season. As I mentioned on the call, to supplement those meetings, we are introducing a new Spotlight Series for this academic year, with each session highlighting one of the college’s departments or programs.

I am pleased to invite you to the first session on Monday, October 5, at 10:30 a.m. CST, which will feature Chair Susan Rather of the Department of Art and Art History.

As you know, the Department of Art and Art History is one of the largest and most diverse in the country, with programs in Studio Art, Art History, and Art Education, as well as projects like the internationally renowned Mesoamerica Center and the popular long-running Learning Tuscany summer program. Susan Rather has served for nearly three decades on the Art History faculty and was named chair this February. Some of our San Antonio members had a chance to meet her this spring and hear about her vision for the department as well as her own research.

As always, we appreciate your RSVP to cofarsvp@austin.utexas.edu so we know to expect you. Please also send any questions you may have for Susan.

I hope you will join us for this special opportunity to learn more about the Department of Art and Art History, its programs, and its faculty.

Warm Regards,

Sondra Lomax
Executive Director of Development
