SUMMARY:40 Years 40 Artists: An Anniversary Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:In celebration of the Museum’s 40th anniversary\, we are excited to announce this exhibition as a tribute to our collection. Throughout the past four decades\, we have diligently collected and preserved a diverse collection of artworks that encapsulates the cultural and historical significance of our region and the broader artistic community. Our collecting mission has been rooted in the belief that collecting art is not merely a task; it is a responsibility we hold for future generations. By ensuring that these works of art\, along with the narratives they convey\, remain accessible\, we are fostering a lasting connection between our community and the artistic expressions that define it. \nThis exhibition will not only showcase 40 exceptional artists but also feature a timeline that highlights significant events from the Museum’s history over the last 40 years. These artworks will spark memories of past shows\, programs\, and events\, allowing visitors to reflect on our history. \nWe invite you to explore these artistic contributions that resonate with our identity and inspire ongoing dialogue about our community’s journey. Join us in celebrating our past\, present\, and future as we honor the artists and stories that shape our collective experience. \nThis exhibition features old favorites\, never-before-seen artworks\, and recent acquisitions\, all from the Museum’s vault.

SUMMARY:An Evening with Dr. Abraham Verghese - 'The Caring in Healthcare: Challenges and Opportunities in a Technological Era'
DESCRIPTION:The Davidson Distinguished Lecture Series invites all to this special presentation by Dr. Abraham Verghese New York Times bestselling author practicing physician and Stanford University professor. \nVerghese is a prominent voice in medicine with a uniquely humanistic view of the future of healthcare. He received the National Humanities Medal from President Obama “for reminding us that the patient is the center of the medical enterprise.”  For 15 years Dr. Verghese was Vice Chair for the Theory & Practice of Medicine at Stanford University. \nOutside of healthcare he is best known as a phenomenally successful author. His first novel Cutting for Stone topped the New York Times bestseller list for over two years\, was translated into more than twenty languages and is being adapted for film. Amazon named it one of its 100 Books to Read in a Lifetime. In 2023 he published his long-awaited second novel The Covenant of Water which debuted as a New York Times bestseller and remained on the list for several weeks.  His memoirs include the award-winning My Own Country and The Tennis Partner. \nTrained in infectious diseases and pulmonary medicine he has long been a top thinker in healthcare. His TED talk “A Doctor’s Touch” has been viewed almost two million times and is as meaningful now as the day he delivered it. During the COVID pandemic his messages of appreciation\, understanding and compassion for all in healthcare and his inspiration on how we go forward were widely appreciated. He also speaks about the future of healthcare. \nHe is co-host with Dr. Eric Topol of the Medicine and the Machine podcast\, and he has long been a top thinker on how we marry cutting-edge technology to advance medicine with a focus on the physical patient. This dual-pronged approach incorporating both an appreciation of technological developments and a profound commitment to the sacred relationship between doctor/caregiver and patient makes him a leading voice in the discussion about what quality care means now and in the future. \nDr. Verghese leads PRESENCE a multidisciplinary center that studies the human experience of patients\, physicians and caregivers. His warmth and vision\, as well as his world-class gifts as a storyteller\, make him a powerful speaker both to healthcare professionals and the patient in all of us.
