Plan your summer reading with Curator Carolyn Laferrière and the Princeton Public Library. 

We’re partnering with the Princeton Public Library for “Unearth a Story,” a summer reading program for adults. Join Carolyn Laferrière, curator of ancient Mediterranean art, for a short talk about works in the Museum’s collections, then explore the works on view in the galleries. Library staff will be available to register attendees for the summer reading challenge. 

Cosponsored by the Princeton Public Library.
