Since we are unable to welcome you into the museums at this time, we are bringing our experts to you in a new online series, Art Study Center Seminars at Home.

This has been a year of rituals interrupted.

Due to the pandemic, many communal rituals that commemorate, whether in joy or grief, major occasions in life have been disrupted, rerouted, and, at times, reinvented. We now feel the heightened poignancy of such rites.

In this seminar, chief curator Soyoung Lee will contemplate the symbolisms and practices of rituals through a selection of objects in the Harvard Art Museums collections.

Led by:
Soyoung Lee, Landon and Lavinia Clay Chief Curator
