A+D @ BAMPFA is a weekly public lecture series organized by the Arts + Design Initiative and co-curated by Susan Moffat, Creative Director of Future Histories Lab. Through lectures by leading scholars, artists, and public figures, students are introduced to vocabularies, forms, and histories from the many arts, design, humanities, and media disciplines represented at UC Berkeley. Students engage with the lecture series through weekly response papers and a final reflection paper. In Fall 2022, the series will explore how the arts transform understanding about the past into possibilities for the future. The course is part of the multi-genre project "A Year on Angel Island," and we'll use the former immigration and incarceration station at this meaningful spot in San Francisco Bay as a jumping-off point for exploring themes of exclusion, belonging, and resilience across geographies and genres including film, dance, literature, visual arts, and music.

Class held in-person 11:30-1pm at the Barbro Osher Theater in the Berkeley Art Museum.
