Visiting Artist Lecture Series
A series of lectures for all CSUB students, featuring some of today's most important artists and thinkers. Each year, a diverse group of 8-10 nationally and internationally recognized artists are invited to CSUB to present their work and ideas to a large audience of students, faculty, and community members. The Visiting Artists Lecture Series provides our students with valuable insights and exposure to art professionals and their work.
VALS is made possible through the generous endowment from The Zaninovich Fund, along with the Todd Madigan Gallery, and the Department of Art & Art History at California State University Bakersfield.
All lectures are held in Visual Arts Building, Room 103 at 5:00PM. They are free and open to the public.
