Known for pairing thought-provoking conversations with flowing wine, the University of West Georgia’s Culture Lab returns this fall with its signature The Other Night School (TONS). This vibrant lecture series showcases top-tier artists and scholars from the arts and humanities, business, and sciences, as they offer a fresh lens on complex topics. 

“We’re excited about our fall lineup, which will welcome new award winners and new faculty presentations,” said Dr. Chad Davidson, executive director of global engagements and cultural programming. “We kick off with Anu Valia, winner of our inaugural Blackwell Prize in Fillmmaking, and will also feature our first Richards College of Businessfaculty presenter in Dr. Agnieszka Chwialkowska. Dr. Marian Buzon from the geology program will give us the ‘real dirt’ on asbestos, and we also host Italian documentarian Francesco De Augustinis. The series will wrap with Dr. Corey Maggiano from anthropology on the information locked inside ancient human bones, the inimitable Dr. Nathan Rees on American art, and – another novelty – wine education from the owner of the Oenophile Institute in Smyrna.”  

TONS is proudly supported by the generosity of the Hollis Trust of Newnan and Milestone Investment Management, LLC, of Carrollton, and is held in partnership with UWG Newnan.
