Global Urban Humanities Open House + Book Fair

Thu Aug 24, 2017 5:00 PM - 6:30 PM
Doe Library
The interdisciplinary Global Urban Humanities Initiative (GUH) studies global cities by bringing together scholars, artists and designers from the arts and humanities, architecture, landscape architecture, and city planning. Come celebrate the start of the fifth year of our activities, including the launch of our new undergraduate program. Learn about an exciting international traveling studio on U.S.-Mexico borderlands, an undergraduate studio on art and performance at a landfill, and a seminar on populism art and the city. We'll also introduce our new Graduate and Undergraduate Certificates in Global Urban Humanities and our fall speaker series. The Open House will also feature a book fair with works authored or edited by GUH faculty. University Press Books will be on hand for book purchases. We'll be hosting this Global Urban Humanities Initiative Open House and Book Fair in the historic Morrison Library. It will be a great chance to meet GUH faculty and students. This event is open to the entire campus and public with RSVP. Registration link can be found here: http://globalurbanhumanities.berkeley.edu/events/guh-open-house Light refreshments will be provided.
