Local artist, Marie Liu will present her popular Power Point presentation “The History of Art of the Minisink Region” to the Walpack Historical Society on August 18 at 1:00 pm.
Researched during her tenure as Resident Artist of the Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area 2015 – 16, she presented her findings about the art that was created of the region and artists who lived here. What she learned was both fascinating and surprising and was received with much enthusiasm when originally presented at the Zimmermann House and subsequently at several other historical societies.
Marie has been creating paintings of the region since moving to Milford a decade ago. Inspired by the rugged beauty of its landscape, sublime waterfalls, picturesque creeks, dense forests and intriguing history, she has set out to document a region with paint and canvas.
The Walpack Historical Society offers an array of exciting and popular events such as its lecture series, informative hikes, Van Campen Inn tours, runs a museum and continually researches the Walpack area history. For more info visit WalpackHistory.org
The program will be at the Walpack Church, just off Route 615 on the Main Street in Walpack Center, NJ.
