Connecting 21st century artist Kathy Hodge and
19th century author Edward Everett Hale is a shared
passion for open spaces, parks, and forests.
In 1905, E. E. Hale testified before Congress in
favor of the Weeks Act. Its passage in 1911 has
led to the preservation of millions of acres of
natural forest.
Since 1993, Hodge, as Artist in Residence at ten
national parks and forests in the U.S., has conveyed
their beauty, and awareness of their fragility,
to contemporary audiences through her paintings.
Now the works of Kathy Hodge are presented in the
same space the noted authors and plein air artists
of the Hale family dwelled more than a century ago.
