Banquet
Nasher Museum.
The setting for the banquet on Friday evening is the beautiful atrium of the Nasher Museum of Art at Duke University. . This festive event has been made possible through the generous support of Theodore Front Musical Literature and Duke University Libraries. The buffet dinner will be catered by the Nasher Museum Café, , a local favorite for their imaginative and upscale fare. Conference attendees can spend time throughout the course of the evening exploring museum exhibits, including Southern Accent: Seeking the American South in Contemporary Art a special exhibition focusing on modern Southern art and music in its cultural and social contexts. We will also have the opportunity to enjoy a performance by the Duke New Music Ensemble, an exceptional student group coordinated by Duke's graduate students in composition and musicology.
