NKY History Hour: The Artist as Storyteller: Intersection of Art and History

NKY History Hour: The Artist as Storyteller: Intersection of Art and History

Presented by Behringer-Crawford Museum at Online/Virtual Space

Wolfgang Ritschel.  Mary Bruce Sharon.  Harlan Hubbard. The craftspeople of Northern Kentucky potteries.

These are just a few of the prolific Northern Kentucky artists whose talents not only captured images of our region, but also preserved the stories, the history and the personalities that inspired them.

Staff from Behringer-Crawford Museum will share locally-created artwork from the museum's archives and discuss how these painters, potters and poets captured moments in time for future generations. Join BCM executive director Laurie Risch, Curator of Collections Jason French and Education Director Kim Gehring-Cook for a NKY History Hour celebrating artists as storytellers and sharing how their tradition is being continued in freshART 2020.

Hosted by Shane Noem and Tara Johnson-Noem, Vice President of the BCM Board of Trustees. NKY History Hour is a weekly offering of Behringer-Crawford Museum focused on Northern Kentucky history, featuring local authors, historians and archaeologists.
