Event Description

Brooke Cassady, an Assistant Professor of Studio Art in Ceramics and 3D Design At Louisiana Tech, will kick off the Cavanaugh Lecture series for this spring. Holder of Clarece Harp Lyles Endowed Professorship in Ceramic Arts and Director of the School of Design Galleries, Cassady hold a BA in Art History from Boston University and and MFA in Ceramics from LSU. Her thesis work used impromptu interactions with clay in public spaces to focus on community engagement and self-actualization.

Cassady's lecture will discuss how a gap year and an unexpected encounter with clay facilitated an opportunity for self-awareness. Cassady uses ceramics, fiber, found objects, and metal to suggest the fragility of life and impermanence and to highlight the resilience and beauty of the natural world and human spirit.

The lecture is free and open to the public. Bring a friend!
