Join us for the Wentworth Student Travel Fellowships Poster Session hosted in Randall Library in the Sherman Hayes Gallery on April 17th from 3 to 5 pm. The Wentworth Travel Fellowship, a gift of Mr. Charles F. Green III, was established in 2001 to enable a select number of students to travel to sites, in America or abroad, associated with literary authors and texts. Each year, students work with faculty sponsors to submit applications detailing journeys inspired by and connected with a specific text, author, or movement in an effort to explore the relationship of artistic production to geographic space.
