Speaker: Emily Sano

Many people believe that working in an art museum should be wonderful because it is so peaceful, and one can look at art and think about art all the time.  However, the truth is far from that. Emily Sano will talk about the more challenging aspects of the job, particularly now, as social and political turmoil affect our everyday lives.  

BIO: Emily J. Sano, Ph.D, a part-time resident of Lovell, joined the San Antonio Museum of Art in January 2016 as the Coates-Cowden-Brown Senior Advisor for Asian Art. Previously, Dr. Sano served as director of the Asian Art Museum of San Francisco and the Deputy Director and Chief Curator of Non-Western Art at the Dallas Museum of Art.

This event will be in-person at the Charlotte Hobbs Memorial Library (Community Room) and, simultaneously, on Zoom. If you plan to attend in person, masks will be required if you are unvaccinated and seating will be on a first-come basis and may be limited.
