Celebrate Women's History Month at MPAC with our latest Starlight Gallery art exhibition, "Familiar Voices" by photographer, educator, and author Nancy Ori!

This exhibition is on view through April 8 prior to MPAC events and by appointment.

 

 

 

 

These images provide a balance of impressions between the architecture, furniture, costumes, and artifacts of by-gone eras and reflect the lives of women who lived, worked, and played at earlier times here. Some images are romantic and painterly in style and provide a contrast to the playful depictions of antique dolls and toys that their children would have handled. Some are bold forms of kitchen tools and objects presented almost as sculptures or still life’s and some are composed room set ups to provide a more formal and wide view of their simple environment.

“Since 1970, I have traveled throughout the world working on various teaching and photographic projects which has given me the opportunity to explore many popular and cherished places. I have discovered that right here in my own back yard there are wonderful sites to photograph and images to share. I am especially drawn to the stories of the women in our local history.”
