Launched in 1928, the Cary Lecture Series began as part of a bequest to the town of Lexington by two sisters, Susanna E. Cary and Eliza Cary Farnham.  Their gift included the Cary Memorial Building, a scholarship fund for graduating seniors, and four free public lectures a year. 

Our lectures are free and open to the public. Tickets are not required, but we do appreciate R.S.V.P.s so that we can plan accordingly for accommodations.
