The Anne P. Baker Gallery at Glema Mahr Center for the Arts in Madisonville, Kentucky, will host Maureen C. Berry: Wild African Adventures in Art from April 12 - May 16, 2024.

This immersive exhibition includes black and white and color photography, watercolors, Big 5 wildlife portraits in ink (plus five additional species), a documentary film that will stream on five 55-inch hi-def screens throughout the gallery, and original African art. The exhibition captures the spirit of wildlife and conservation from Kenya to Zimbabwe and Botswana.

Wild African Adventures in Art exhibition opens Friday, April 12, 2024, at 6 p.m. The exhibition is free and open to the public. At 7 p.m., Eykamp String Quartet Concert performs on stage in an intimate setting. Refreshments will be served. Tickets for the chamber concert can be purchased at the Glema Center for the Arts box office.

If you can’t make it to opening night, you’ll have an opportunity to view Wild African Adventures in Art exhibition for six weeks. Anne P. Baker Gallery is free and open to the public Monday-Friday from 9-4 and for extended hours during performances. Two additional GMCA 2023-2024 events will coincide with Wild African Adventures in Art exhibition: Rumours — A Fleetwood Mac Tribute, Friday, April 19, 2024, and The MCC Singers Spring Concert, Saturday, April 27, 2024. (Ticket sales for these events begin 7/17/23.)

Photography, watercolors, and ink drawings from Wild African Adventures in Art will be available for purchase. I’ll have more details soon if you’re interested in buying art and can’t attend the exhibition.
