On view from April 7 to June 13, this exhibition reflects four decades of artistic exchange through the efforts of the Foundation for Art and Preservation in Embassies, a nonprofit, nonpartisan foundation providing permanent works of American art for U.S. embassies around the world.

The Johns Hopkins University Center on Global Poverty presents a full-day event with several panels on how foreign aid and international development should be rethought given the recent contraction of aid in the U.S. as well as in other developing countries. Panelists include high-level practitioners in the international development arena as well as scholars from around the world.

This discussion brings together leading voices from history, economics, and journalism to explore how businesspeople and economic elites have shaped politics and society—from antiquity to the present. Together, the panelists will consider how the concentration of wealth has influenced governance, public discourse, and social structures across time and what insights the past can offer for understanding today's democratic challenges.

The Laboratory to Launchpad Conference at Johns Hopkins University will offer meaningful insights into the evolving nature of research translation and equip attendees with the tools they need to turn their work into impactful products.
