Presenting Culture: The Curator as Steward, Critic, and Provocateur

April 18, 2013, 7:30 p.m.
Upper Gwinn Commons
This lecture is free and open to the public.

The 2013 Friends of the Library Lecture will be delivered by Gregory Wolfe, founder and editor-in-chief of Image: A Journal of the Arts and Religion, writer-in-residence at Seattle Pacific University, and founding director of SPU’s Master of Fine Arts in Creative Writing. In addition to building a variety of literary programs and institutions, Wolfe is a prolific author of essays, reviews, and books, including Beauty Will Save the World. He will speak about the curator's roles as a protector of artistic tradition, an arbiter of taste, and a creative force in his or her own right.
