“The Persistence of Chumash Visual Culture in the Mission Period”

Lecture by Dr. Lisbeth Haas, Professor, History, Latin American and Latino Studies, Feminist Studies, University of California Santa Cruz

Prof. Lisbeth Haas (UC Santa Cruz), will deliver a public lecture that focuses on objects from Sacred Art in the Age of Contact, and explores the exhibition’s central theme of the persistence of Chumash sacred and visual traditions through the mission period.
