Join us for the 2019 Phillip Tennant Furniture Artisan Lecture with Annie Evelyn on Wednesday, Feb. 27. Evelyn explores furniture’s inherent relationships to the human body to create new and surprising experiences.
The annual Phillip Tennant Furniture Lecture is made possible by a gift from Jim and Nancy Smith.
This event is free and open to the public and occurs in the Basile Auditorium of Eskenazi Hall on the IUPUI campus. Visit herrongalleries.org for details on parking, exhibitions, and more.
