Rebecca Brand, last year's Gordon Art Fellow, displays her photography exhibit titled Near Nature. Brand creatively juxtaposes synthetic plants with plants that are naturally found on the property in each image. She explains, "These images are meant to encourage viewers to become more aware of the natural world by asking them to consider what may or may not be a natural experience"�.

Reflections Upon Familiar Places is the title of the exhibit by Richard Jordan and Michael Pendola. Both artists are members of the Plein Air Artists of West Michigan. The exhibit consists of oil and watercolor landscape paintings that are painted directly from nature.
