Mack Lecture Series

The annual Mack Lecture Series invites the foremost changemakers of our day to speak about transformation on a range of pressing topics.

The Mack Lecture Series explores our contemporary cultural moment through inspiring conversations and lectures. Accompanied by conversations with local changemakers, the series invites national and international artists, writers, and thinkers to the Walker podium.

From issues of representation in media to the role of law in climate change, Mack Lectures highlight cutting-edge ideas and ways of working. By deepening our collective understanding and appreciation of the critical issues of our time, the series creates new possibilities for transformation. Past Mack Lecture guest speakers have included Sterlin Harjo, Claudia Rankine, Kulapat Yantrasast, and other notable changemakers.

The Mack Lecture series is made possible by generous support from Aaron and Carol Mack.
