Lecture

Graham Sheffield, Director for Arts, British Council

Yale Center for British Art, 1080 Chapel St., New Haven, CT, 06510 MAP
Graham Sheffield, Director for Arts, British Council

On the eve of the London 2012 Olympics, and on the occasion of the New Haven debut of the National Theatre of Scotland at the Festival (Wednesday, June 20-Saturday, June 30), Graham Sheffield of the British Council shares stories and insights about the power of art and culture to connect the global to the local. Discussion to follow will connect with Connecticut’s own conversation about the value of cultural placemaking.

Co-sponsored by the International Festival of Arts & Ideas.
