Announcing the Ann Roberts Lecture Series

In recognition of Ann Roberts’s 12 years of leadership of the Nashville Historical Foundation and the critical importance of modern architectural design in the decades following the Second World War, the Nashville Historical Foundation organized a series of three lectures with members of the board presenting on the topic of modernism and how it manifested in Nashville. The series sold out quickly; there is a waiting list for each lecture.

Due to weather impacting the first event, the series was postponed by a week. Events will be held at 4:30 on April 10, April 17, and April 24 at Sunnyside’s recently renovated stone outbuilding. The address is 1113 Kirkwood Ave.

If you have a ticket for a particular speaker’s lecture, and cannot attend, please email jessica.reeves@nashville.gov so someone on the wait list can attend.
