2019 Emerging Scholars Colloquium Lecture Recordings Now Available

The Emerging Scholars Colloquium is one of the Decorative Arts Trust’s most beloved annual events, as it is a wonderful chance to be inspired by new research in the field.

The Colloquium takes place in New York City each January following the Trust’s New York Antiques Weekend. Five recent Emerging Scholars Program grant recipients are invited to present lectures on their study projects.

While nothing quite tops attending the Emerging Scholars Colloquium in person, the Trust is excited to bring you these recordings from the 2019 Emerging Scholars Colloquium to watch at your leisure.
