Gary Hilderbrand to Deliver the 2026 Frederick Law Olmstead Lecture

Gary Hilderbrand
“Writing on the Surface of the Earth”
September 22nd, 6:30-8:00pm

Gary Hilderbrand will discuss how the work of Reed Hilderbrand is grounded in close site reading and narratives that find precise expression through design. Drawing on projects from the firm’s portfolio spanning the past 25 years, the lecture will explore the evolution of the practice, while reflecting on the reciprocal relationship between pedagogy and professional practice.

Gary Hilderbrand is the Peter Louis Hornbeck Professor in Practice of Landscape Architecture at Harvard Graduate School of Design.

The event is free and open to the public, and a livestream will be available. Visit the event site to register for the event and learn more.
