We look forward to welcoming Karen Thurlow to the Red Cloud Opera House gallery for our final exhibition of the year! Born in Red Cloud and raised in rural Webster County, Karen is a graduate of Bladen High School. With this exhibit, she recreates Webster County memories based on family photographs and local buildings, rendered in her distinctive impressionistic style and vibrant color palette.

For our second holiday season, throughout December we will be offering guided holiday tours on Saturdays, beginning with December 7, which is also Willa Cather’s birthday! This year’s tour will specifically focus on the many seasonal winter and Christmas details described in My Ántonia—at the very same places that inspired locations in Cather's most beloved novel!
