Libraries Advancement and Support

 

Built Environments Student at Checkout

Whether through the helpful expertise of a librarian, a collaborative study space for students, or a rich and rare collection of books, our resources are utilized by tens of thousands of curious minds - undergraduates, graduate students, faculty, and professional students - in support of their quest for knowledge, and to serve the citizens of our state by addressing society’s most vital issues.

    Gravity by Fay Jones 2010 detailAnne Gould Hauberg Artist Images lecture by Fay Jones

    Most Northwesterners have at least a passing familiarity with the works of artist Fay Jones. Her paintings and prints, which examine contemporary life through unexpected juxtapositions, adorn the walls of museums, restaurants and hospitals throughout the region. Her images have also appeared on book covers, in the New Yorker and on wine labels. Jones blends autobiography, social commentary and memories to examine modern life while remembering the past and bracing for the future. Jones will discuss her creative process and the history of her work. A question-and-answer session and a reception with the artist will follow.
    Limited seating; online pre-registration strongly encouraged, or phone 206-543-0540.

    Established in 1989, the Artist Images Series celebrates prominent artists from the Pacific Northwest. The Anne Gould Hauberg Endowed Library Fund supports the event. Co-presented by the UW Alumni Association and UW Libraries.

    NOTE: venue change to Kane Hall 210 | Friday October 11, 7-9pm
