 The Gibbes Museum of Art is thrilled to welcome **Dr. Sarah Elizabeth Lewis** as our 2023 Distinguished Lecture Speaker. Our first art historian, Dr. Lewis is the John L. Loeb Associate Professor of the Humanities and Associate Professor of African and African American Studies at Harvard University. Before joining faculty at Harvard, she held curatorial positions at MOMA, the Tate Modern, and served as a critic at Yale University School of Art. Her work, promoting visual literacy, has been profiled in *The New York Times, The New York Review of Books, The New Yorker, The Atlantic*, and *The Boston Globe.*

 In 2016, Dr. Lewis co-edited the groundbreaking Vision & Justice issue of photography magazine *Aperture*, which focused on reexamining historical narratives around photography. In 2019, Harvard University hosted the Vision & Justice Conference, which saw thought-leaders including filmmaker Ava DuVernay, renowned scholar Henry Louis Gates Jr., and contemporary artist Carrie Mae Weems among many others gathering to consider the role of the arts in understanding the nexus of art, race, and justice.
