About the Louise R. Weiser Lecture in Creativity, Innovation, and Leadership through Art
The Louise R. Weiser Lecture in Creativity, Innovation, and Leadership Through Art was established in 2012. Mrs. Weiser was a longtime employee of the College, and her family and friends raised funds to establish an endowment supporting programs at the Museum. The Weiser Lecture is one part of the Museum’s “Creativity Initiative,” aimed at sharing the importance of creative thought in every endeavor represented on campus.
