Global Speed Lecture Series: Austria - "Saving the Lipizzaner"

With the Speed’s first major equine art show, Tales from the Turf: The Kentucky Horse, 1825-1950, opening November 15, the Speed is hosting Elizabeth Letts, New York Times bestselling author of The Perfect Horse: The Daring U.S. Mission to Rescue the Priceless Stallions Kidnapped by the Nazis. Austria’s arts and cultural heritage was uprooted and displaced during World War II, a topic that will recur during this year’s Global Speed series. Join us for an evening of dramatic storytelling featuring a prized and beloved symbol of Austrian culture: the Lipizzaner stallion.

This Global Speed Lecture was made possible by Ms. A. Cary Brown and the W. L. Lyons Brown, Jr Charitable Foundation.
