The lecture is named in honor of Caroline and H. McCoy Jones, and focuses on the study of Central Asian textiles.
H. McCoy Jones (1897 – 1987) was a scholar, a collector of nomadic tribal rugs, and the founder of the International Hajji Baba Society, a nonprofit dedicated to the understanding and appreciation of fine textiles. In 1980, he and his wife, Caroline (1917 – 2006), made the commitment to donate his collection of more than 600 Central Asian carpets and textiles to the Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco, transforming the Museums into one of the greatest repositories of Central Asian textiles in the United States. After his death in 1987, Caroline expanded her husband’s collection, focusing on Central Asian and South American textiles, and gifted significant collections of Anatolian kilims and global headwear. Their estate was gifted to the Textile Arts department in 2006, which is today known as the Caroline and H. McCoy Jones Department of Textile Arts. Learn more.
