    The Harry Ransom Center presents the Poetry on the Plaza event Culture Unbound on Wednesday, March 2, at noon.

    Held in conjunction with the current exhibition Culture Unbound: Collecting in the Twenty-First Century, the event showcases selected works featured in the exhibition. Readers include Ransom Center Director Thomas F. Staley, Assistant Director for Acquisitions and Administration and Culture Unbound curator Megan Barnard, visiting English professor and former Ransom Center fellow Vanessa Guignery, and Associate Professor of English Michael Adams.

    Refreshments will be served at this free event.

    The exhibition commemorates the Ransom Center's tireless hunt for archives that will capture the imagination, invigorate scholarly research, and deepen our understanding of culture. Highlighting major acquisitions in this new century, the exhibition demonstrates how the Center builds a collection of interrelated archives that strengthen and give context to one another.
