Creating Solutions to Real Challenges

At the core of a Lesley education is the hunger to go out in to the world and do good. Lesley students and faculty use creativity to tackle some of today’s most pressing issues.

Together, we’re ensuring that future generations have access to the arts. Promoting technological fluency in low-performing schools. Narrowing the attainment gap in disadvantaged communities. And that’s just the beginning.

Speakers & Events

Lesley invites the Greater Boston community to join us in our mission to foster understanding and build bridges across cultural, racial, and economic divides.

In addition to attending our Strauch-Mosse Visiting Artist lectures, all are welcome to visit our Cambridge campus for lectures, readings, screenings, and more. Because when we come together to connect, learn, and listen with purpose, we can make more happen.
