Akiko Walley (Maude I. Kerns Associate Professor of Japanese Art, Department of History of Art and Architecture) will discuss a 1,250-year-old model pagoda and Buddhist prayer slip ensemble, one of a large number created in response to political upheaval. This acquisition was made possible through collaboration between the College of Design Library, HAA, the museum, and a private donation.
