SUMMARY:Artist Talk: Cavin Jones
DESCRIPTION:Join us on Saturday\, September 26\, 2026 at 2 PM in the Art Department for a talk by Philadelphia artist Cavin Jones. \nCavin Jones is a painter\, muralist\, and collagist whose figurative work is inspired by American history\, particularly the African American experience. Jones has said that his work is “a catalyst to stimulate thought and promote discussion about various issues prevalent in society.” His dynamic compositions often feature contrasting elements that as he says\, “infuse the paintings with layers of meaning and associations.” \nCavin will talk about his art journey\, including his public mural work. After the talk in the Art Department\, we’ll visit the Print and Picture Collection to view the original drawings for Cavin’s reimagined Alice in Wonderland. Cavin will have copies of his books available for purchase.

SUMMARY:Horizons: American Landscapes from Tradition to Tomorrow
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an illuminating conversation between curators from two of America’s most distinguished art institutions as part of PAFA’s landmark exhibition A Nation of Artists. Dr. Lea Stephenson\, Kenneth R. Woodcock Curator of Historical American Art at PAFA\, and Kerry Bickford\, Associate Curator at the Brandywine Museum of Art\, explore how American artists have depicted landscapes—from the Hudson River School’s sublime vistas to the Brandywine tradition’s intimate terrain\, and contemporary artists reimagining these spaces today. \nThis dialogue examines how landscape painting has shaped American cultural identity across centuries\, reflecting changing relationships with the land\, environment\, and national mythology. Drawing on the rich collections of both institutions\, our speakers will trace connections between historical masters and today’s artists who continue to challenge and expand how we see the American landscape. \nAs America celebrates its 250th anniversary and PAFA reopens its Historic Landmark Building with A Nation of Artists\, this program offers a rare opportunity to explore one of American art’s most enduring subjects through fresh eyes and urgent questions about place\, belonging\, and our shared horizons. \nThis program is offered in a hybrid format—attend in person at PAFA or watch the live stream on YouTube. A link to the livestream will be emailed to all registrants by 11:30 AM on the day of the event. A recording of the program will be shared with registrants following the event. \nAbout Kerry Bickford and Brandywine \nKerry Bickford is a Philadelphia-based curator and artistic producer whose practice focuses on site-responsive public art and intersections between art and local ecology. She is currently Associate Curator at the Brandywine Conservancy and Museum of Art\, where she has curated Abundance/Excess: A Contemporary Eye on Still Life. Prior to joining Brandywine\, she served as Senior Project Manager at Monument Lab\, where she produced Declaration House and the Monument Lab Summit.

She has produced and co-produced numerous projects including Grounds that Shout! (and others merely shaking) and Jane Irish: Antipodes. Bickford has an M.A. from the Williams College Graduate Program in the History of Art and a B.A. in English and Art History from Northwestern University. \nRenowned for its holdings of the Wyeth family of artists\, the Brandywine Museum of Art features galleries dedicated to the work of N.C. Wyeth\, Andrew Wyeth and Jamie Wyeth. The Museum’s outstanding Brandywine Collection is a cross-section of American art\, with a special focus on artistic practice in the Brandywine Valley. Nineteenth- and twentieth-century landscape paintings testify to the beauty that drew well-known artists to the area. Important portraits\, still life paintings and notable holdings in American illustration add diversity and breadth to this unique collection. \nLearn more about Brandywine Museum of Art \nAbout Dr. Lea Stephenson \nDr. Lea Stephenson is an art historian\, who is currently the Kenneth R.
