Please join us on Monday, April 24 as we celebrate the 2023–24 Rome Prize winners and Italian Fellows at the Arthur and Janet C. Ross Rome Prize Ceremony, taking place in the Great Hall at Cooper Union in New York.

AAR’s spring exhibition, June Jordan, The Poetry of Design, will open with a Conversations/Conversazioni on equity and justice in design, which Jordan helped catalyze by foregrounding the rights and voices of disenfranchised communities.

This exhibition highlights for the first time how the poet and June Jordan (1971 Fellow) foregrounded the impact of urban space on lived experience in her work to advocate improved affordable housing, gender equality, and racial justice.

AAR will host a panel of the Associazione Internazionale di Archeologia Classica (AIAC), in that organization’s long-standing Incontri series. The theme for this evening is Immagini e società.

This conversation, the first collaboration between the New York Public Library and the American Academy in Rome, will consider the ethical, aesthetic, and social implications of public art and design.
