Each week the "Shakerag Lecture Series" sponsors a presentation by a
special visiting artist. These public Wednesday evening lectures are
held at 7:30 in the James Agee Memorial Library on the campus of St.
Andrew's-Sewanee School. Each lecture is followed by a reception in
the St. Andrew's-Sewanee Gallery honoring the Shakerag Lecturer and
the Shakerag faculty artists.

This year's Shakerag lecturers are Manuel Cuevas and Jeff Schmuki.
