Master Naturalist Photography Exhibit

"Celebrating the Beauty of Nature" features a diverse range of photographs by members of the Shenandoah Chapter of the Virginia Master Naturalist Program. The stunning images include a variety of landscapes, birds, and other wildlife, each capturing the unique beauty of our natural world. This is the seventh area exhibit in which the talented group has participated. Those involved are Janet Creager Alger, Karen Fall, Alice Findler, Liz Harrington, Richard Hayden, Lisa Hinson, Sally Neff, Alex Newhart, Valerie Shore, and Bill Spinrad. Formed in 2020 after photography classes taught by Dr. Rob Simpson at Laurel Ridge Community College, members work together to improve their skills and share on field trips. All pieces are for sale, and framed duplicates can be created if the one you fancy has already been sold.

The exhibit is conveniently located in the Lawrence Gallery of our main building (300 Westminster-Canterbury Drive), and open for viewing any day between 9 a.m. and 6 p.m.
