Features 100 original paintings from the Plein-Air Painters of America created on site at 35 parks throughout the country. This nearly decade-by-decade documentation of our national parks established from 1872 to 2002 affirms the continuing desire of the American people to protect unique geographic and geological wonders as national parks, preserves, recreation areas, monuments, seashores, parkways, rivers and historical sites.

Upcoming Exhibitions
Special Exhibition: Associated American Artist: Art by Subscription
More than 75 etchings, wood engravings, aquatints, and mezzotints are included in this historical exhibition featuring works by nearly fifty 20th century American artists whose works reflected the social imagery of America. The exhibit is not only important for the fine works it includes, but because it was the first step in a project, begun in 1934, designed on the theory that possession of a good work of art is the most effective stimulant of art interest among the uninitiated.
