Due to limited seating and high demand, online ticket sales have closed. Tickets may be available at the Jepson Center front desk starting at 5pm.

We strongly recommend all pre-registered members and guests be in their seats by 5:45pm. Waitlisted seating may be available to unregistered members and non-members on a first come, first served basis. We suggest arriving early to secure a seat. Once the auditorium reaches capacity, the doors will be closed and no additional entrances will be admitted to the lecture. However, all of the museum galleries will remain open for viewing and guests are welcome to join us for the reception.
