9/17 Julian Schnabel Talk Rescheduled to 11/5

Due to unforeseen circumstances, the University of Michigan Stamps School of Art & Design’s Penny Stamps Speaker Series regrettably has to reschedule their series kick-off event with Julian Schnabel.

Originally scheduled for Thursday, September 17, this talk will now take place on Thursday, November 5 at 5:10 pm in Ann Arbor’s Michigan Theater (603 E. Liberty St.). The Patricia Urquiola talk originally scheduled for November 5 will take place as part of the Winter 2016 Penny Stamps Speaker Series, announced in late November 2015. 

In lieu of a Penny Stamps Speaker Series event on Thursday, September 17, Stamps will present a free screening of Julian Schnabel’s film, Miral, at the Michigan Theater. Miral is centered on an orphaned Palestinian girl growing up in the wake of Arab-Israeli war and was directed by Schnabel in 2010.

“We know how much our audiences love connecting with incredible artists via the Penny Stamps Speaker Series,” says Chrisstina Hamilton, director of the distinguished speaker events. ​“We are committed to ensuring our community has access to the creative thought-leaders of our time and pleased to reschedule Julian Schnabel’s Stamps appearance within the current season.”
