When a 25-year-old Anthony van Dyck visited Palermo during his transformative sojourn in Italy, he got more than he had bargained for. In May 1624, mere weeks after his arrival to paint the Spanish viceroy, Emanuele Filiberto, the city's most disastrous plague struck. Terrifying as it was for the artist, van Dyck's involuntary quarantine was a boon for the history of art. He used that time to create a series of paintings which transformed Saint Rosalie into Palermo’s main patron saint. In this docent-led talk, we will examine those paintings and some of his portraits to see what they can tell us about the power of painted imagery to comfort, and to reflect the times. Date | Friday, March 3 from 11 a.m. to noon Location | Online via Zoom Register here for free! Must register online to attend. For more information, please contact Alexandra Riley at ariley@timkenmuseum.org or by phone at (619) 550-5955.

The ongoing global pandemic and recent invasion of Ukraine has put the global business community into the spotlight specifically in relation to its Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) commitments. The unfolding situation has heightened the global business community’s critical role in upholding key ESG values such as the rule of law, good governance, and human rights. Subsequently, its response to global Climate Change, Environment Disaster Risk Reduction, and Crisis Management is vital in our shared pursuit of a sustainable future for all. Within this context, this panel discussion on “Catalyzing Private Sector Engagement: Moving the Needle on Sustainability” intends to break down sector silos and demonstrate the important synergies between the private sector ESG goals and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). This discussion will ultimately catalyze greater private sector commitments that are crucial in achieving a sustainable future. Date | Monday, March 21 at 11 a.m. Location | Online via Zoom Register here for free! This event is free and open to the public, registration is required to attend.
