Seasons at the Lakeshore

About the Event

Open night at the History Center and a presentation by SDHC Executive Director, Eric Gollannek, PhD.

Come be inspired by the changing seasons—summer, fall, and winter—seen in the forests, dunes, water, and townscapes that make the Lakeshore a scenic and historic place for artists and art lovers.

Visitors can explore the exhibition at the History Center and enjoy a short lecture about the Lakeshore area art and artists showcased there. On view since last fall, the art exhibition “Seasons at the Lakeshore” presents more than thirty artworks from the Center’s permanent collection. The artworks on view allow visitors to experience the Lakeshore through the eyes of artists working at the Lakeshore for more than a century.

The event is free to attend and will run from 5:00 to 7:00 PM on Thursday, April 17 at the History Center located at 130 Center Street in Downtown Douglas. Refreshments and snacks will be provided. At 5:30 PM SDHC executive director Eric Gollannek will give a presentation exploring the art history of these Art Coast artworks, highlighting their artistic significance to the Lakeshore then and now.
