2024 Abele Lecture

Toni L. Griffin of Harvard delivers the inaugural Abele Lecture in Design & Policy. Named for the trailblazing 20th-century architect Julian Francis Abele, the first Black graduate of what is today the Weitzman School of Design, the Abele Lecture is moderated by Matthew Kenyatta. Griffin will discuss connecting design with spatial and social (in)justices across American legacy cities. A reception will follow.
