June 24 Talk: Ellen Postlewait, History Curator

The medieval knight in armor is one of the most popular figures in collective imagination. From battlefields to royal courts, explore the various aspects of the knights' life in the newly opened exhibition. Our history curator, Ellen Postlewait, will share a closer look at the exhibition and explore things you can't read from the labels. 


About the Program: Gallery Talk with an Expert is your chance to get up close with an expert on our exhibitions. We invite everyone from curators to graphic artists to technical experts to give you all the behind-the-scenes fun and facts that you can't get anywhere else. The first talk starts at 5:45 pm and is repeated at 6:45 pm.
