If UVA had an Attic: Behind the Scenes with Meg Kennedy

Please join us for a special trip inside UVA's storehouse of art, antiques, and archaeological artifacts with Meg Kennedy, the Albert & Shirley Small Special Collection’s Curator of Material Culture.

Meg oversees curation, description, and access to the University’s Fine and Decorative Arts Collection and several significant archaeological and records collections. She also maintains recently excavated and legacy collections of archaeological artifacts associated with the history of the University of Virginia.

What a treat for Meg to share with us some of the items that have been out of the public eye for a number of years. We'll take a virtual tour of these spaces and then Meg will be happy to answer questions.

The Zoom link to join us will be sent via email before the event.

For more information on this event, please contact Robin Stafford (PAR '17), Senior Associate Director, UVA Clubs, at ras5s@virginia.edu.
