Hey, here’s some news! (This has been true for a while, by the way.) The opportunities are even greater when you choose a “smaller” but serious program like ours. Mentoring matters, especially when you have access to those mentors! #LMTAH #LearnMore #TakeArtHistory #ArtHistorySky

We are so proud of Professor Kirstin Ringelberg @kringelberg.bsky.social who recently presented at “The First Homosexuals” symposium held at Wrightwood 659 Chicago. The symposium was the opening event for a groundbreaking exhibition that illustrates the emergence of “homosexual” as a new identity.
