Distinguished Lecturers Series

Crow Canyon is pleased to present the 2010–2011 Distinguished Lecturers Series.

Organized by the Friends of Crow Canyon advisory board and sponsored by individuals and local businesses, the series raises funds that help underwrite tuition for local students attending Crow Canyon programs.

The Friday-night event is held in the Gates Archaeology Laboratory on the Crow Canyon campus, unless noted otherwise. The evening begins with light refreshments at 7:00 p.m., followed by the lecture at 7:30. Wine for the event is generously donated by Guy Drew Vineyards, a local winery.

A season subscription to all five lectures is $135 for one person or $250 for two people. Crow Canyon members at the $100 or more level receive 10% off the season subscription. Tickets to individual lectures are $30, subject to availability; please call in advance. For more information or to purchase a season subscription or individual tickets, please call Amy at 970.564.4341 (toll-free 800.422.8975, ext. 141), or e-mail her at askaggs@crowcanyon.org.
