The Ruth K. Shartle Lecture Series was established in 1975 in memory of Ruth K. Shartle, a longtime MFAH benefactor. Lectures, conversations, discussions, and symposia related to exhibitions and MFAH initiatives are free and open to the public. See highlights of past programs.

The series commemorates Ruth K. Shartle’s “unstinting friendship; her intellectual curiosity and generous spirit of sharing her enthusiasm for man’s creative accomplishment; and most of all, her unselfish, fresh spirit and unfailing joy of life.” —William C. Agee, MFAH director, 1974 to 1982

The Ruth K. Shartle Lecture Series is made possible by a generous grant from The Brown Foundation, Inc.
