A signature part of the free Nasher Prize programming, the laureate lecture provides a platform for each year’s winner to speak about his or her work – in any format – to an audience of students and the public. Following this year's presentation, will be a reception launching the 2023 Nasher Prize Graduate Symposium Compendium—a publication of the scholarly work presented by a selection of graduate students at an event held in January 2023.
This in-person event is free and open to the public.
