Through generous gifts from supporters, we are able to host four annual lecture series that complement some of the Collection’s archival riches:

Cahn-Lawrence Photography Lecture explores fresh voices and perspectives on photography of Louisiana and the Gulf South.

Bill Russell Lecture series delves into early jazz history.

Francisco Bouligny Lecture series discusses Louisiana’s Spanish colonial period.

Les Comédiens Français Lecture series presents examples of French culture in Louisiana.

Williams Lecture Series presents expert staff and authors speaking on object studies and new acquisitions at HNOC.
