Group visits in December

15 December 2025

We were pleased to welcome a couple of groups for visits in December. Staff from the Office of International Education at Carnegie Mellon joined us on 11 December, and on 12 December a group of volunteers from the Jewish Family and Community Services of Pittsburgh visited. Both groups enjoyed a tour of The Art and Science of Rafael Lucas Rodríguez Caballero with Archivist Nancy Janda and Curator of Art Lydia Rosenberg as well as a quick tour of our reading room. Our curators appreciated the enthusiasm, curiosity and attentiveness of the groups' members.

Contact us to schedule a tour or talk for your group.
