Oxy Live! Presents a Conversation with Rebecca Solnit

This event is NOT at OXY ARTS. It will take place at Thorne Hall on Occidental College's campus. 


Occidental College and OXY ARTS are pleased to announce the launch year of Oxy Live!, a conversation series highlighting a diverse lineup of cultural luminaries at the forefront of their fields.

In this second event of the season Oxy Live!, writer, historian and activist Rebecca Solnit joins us in conversation with acclaimed interviewer and cultural interlocutor Paul Holdengräber.

From Whence We Came Opening Reception

Celebrate the opening of the '23-'24 Senior Comps Exhibition at OXY ARTS!

Senior “comps,” or comprehensives, reflect Oxy’s educational philosophy of learning deeply and independently. Comps are the senior-year theses, field research projects, art exhibits, presentations or creative works required by academic majors at Oxy to demonstrate mastery of the subject. Each discipline defines its expectations differently, but they all challenge students to expand and excel intellectually, and place the capstone on their educational experience.

Come help construct the OXYHEDRON!

The OXYHEDRON will be built between Fowler & Johnson Hall, in front of the Coons Administration Building!
 
Construction will begin on Friday, November 10 from 10am to 4pm. The structure will be on view through Monday, November 13.
 
Built together with the Occidental Math Department, this 17-foot-tall structure shows a three-dimensional fractal composed of ever-larger copies of a fundamental 8-sided shape, the regular octahedron.
