Artists Rose B. Simpson and Roxanne Swentzell will discuss their exhibition, Rose B. Simpson: Journeys of Clay, with Arden Sherman, Glenn W. and Cornelia T. Bailey Senior Curator of Contemporary Art and Pamela Solares, Sophie Davis Fellow for IDEA. The mother and daughter artists descend from a long line of ceramicists of the Santa Clara Pueblo in New Mexico. In their work, Simpson and Swentzell combine their ancestral and contemporary knowledge to create mixed media sculptures primarily using clay.

Guests of the lecture will be invited alongside Museum Members to preview the exhibition before the public.
