Special Lecture: Where Credit is Due with Ryan Grover
Monday| January 16 | 2 PM - 3 PM

Free Event


Returning to the Biggs for a special presentation on his research into enslaved artisans represented in the Biggs Collection, Ryan Grover presents Where Credit is Due. While this presentation and gallery talk focuses on the works credited to John Janvier (1749-1801), who is among Delaware’s most renowned cabinetmakers, research shows that he was certainly not alone.


Be sure to join former Biggs Curator, Ryan Grover, and current Director of Education, Kristen Matulewicz, in the revaluation of who receives credit when art is created.
