The Morris Museum and Thoughtful Productions are thrilled to announce a new lecture series dedicated to arts and culture. Breakfast University — part of a growing, nationwide program that pairs the country’s most remarkable professors with leading museums and cultural institutions — has been custom designed specifically for the Morris Museum and promises highly engaging presentations that explore the themes and ideas at the heart of what the Museum does.
Each event begins with coffee and light refreshments and concludes with private access to the Museum’s galleries. In between, a one-hour lecture and Q&A will deliver insightful perspectives on a wide variety of timely topics in arts and culture.
