Description

Humanities West presents a wide-ranging series of lectures and performances encompassing the fine arts, social history, music, politics, and philosophy of the arts. Since 1983 these interdisciplinary programs have been designed to entertain and educate diverse audiences in an effort to illuminate and elevate the human spirit through exploration of the many sources of modern culture. Each season Humanities West presents a number of programs in which leading scholars and artists present lectures, performances, readings and discussions to audiences in San Francisco's Herbst Theatre. These one- or two-day events represent an opportunity unique not only to the Bay Area, but also to the entire United States. In cooperation with other institutions such as the World Affairs Council, the San Francisco Public Library and the Mechanic's Institute Library, additional public lectures and panels are presented to further expand upon program topics. Humanities West is an independent non-profit organization. We rely on individual contributions and foundation and corporate financial support.
