SUMMARY:Loyal to the Union: Ohio in the Civil War Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:Explore the people and events that made the Buckeye state unique and so important to the Union cause. \nOhio joined the Union in 1803 as the 17th state\, and was a major agricultural\, economic\, educational\, and intellectual force in pre-Civil War America. At the time of the Civil War\, Ohio was the oldest and most established state in the Upper Middle West. \nIt can be argued that no northern state was more important to the Union cause than Ohio. Its size\, location\, and its southern borders with Virginia and Kentucky made it geographically important. The Ohio River and a well-established network of railroads moved troops\, food and supplies. Ohio contributed more soldiers per capita to the Union Army than any other northern state. Ohio’s location made it a major route for African American freedom seekers traveling to Canada. Five Ohioans who served in the Union Army went on to become president of the United States. \nClosed holidays.

SUMMARY:Transparent Watercolor Society of America Annual National Juried Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Paintings from transparent watercolor artists from across the country will be on display. Works include a wide variety of subjects from landscapes and portraits to abstracts. \nTransparent Watercolor Society of America is a national organization devoted to advancing the stature of transparent watercolor as a major expression and to foster its appreciation. \nAccording to TWSA: All watercolor pigments applied in a transparent manner allow light to penetrate the layers of glazes and reflect back through the pigments from the paper below. The whites are brilliant paper left unpainted. This light\, reflecting off the white of the paper\, makes the medium work. No white paint is accepted. Artists are required to preserve the white of the paper’s surface wherever a white statement is intended. Learn more about TWSA at www.watercolors.org.
