    Add Review/Comment

    Sunday, July 25, 2:00 pm Jane W. Faquin, curator of the Helen M. Turner exhibition, will give a public lecture about the artist and her career. Turner, possibly the finest American woman Impressionist to come out of the twentieth century, had to wait until middle age for success and recognition as an artist. Faquin is the former curator of education at the Dixon who discovered Turner and her painting after she retired from the Dixon in 2007. She is the creator of the exhibition and author of the catalog which accompanies the exhibition, "Helen M. Turner: The Woman's Point of View." Book signing available immediately following lecture.
