The Mellon Foundation filled the Robert H. Smith Auditorium, as well as had guests view and listen to the conference from the Robert H. and Clarice Smith New York Gallery of American History. Meals were hosted in the Patricia D. Klingenstein Library and Dexter Hall. These spaces were later flipped for a lovely reception after the full day conference.
