Senior Curator of Prints and Photographs, Sean Corcoran, will discuss the depth and breadth of the Museum’s photography collection. He will share highlights from the collection, including works by Jacob A. Riis, Berenice Abbott, and LOOK Magazine. Mr. Corcoran will discuss the origins of the photographic collections at the Museum, how the collection has changed over the past 100 years, and our vision for collecting today and into the future. 

The talk will be accompanied by a selection of fine teas provided by Harney & Sons alongside delicious sandwiches and treats from Les Gateaux de Marie.
