The Preserve: Uniting Nature and Culture
The Preserve is an exhibition which unites the minds of selected artists who have participated in the Big Cypress National Preserve’s Artist in Residency Program. The works featured in this winter collection represent fifteen different approaches from artists working in a variety of disciplines, all originating from unique personal experiences.

The exhibition features landscapes, layered photographs, woodcuts and poems by the Artists in Residence. Each artist voices concern for the philosophical and ecological implications of humans in nature, while concurrently raising awareness of the breathtaking natural resource situated between Naples and Miami.

Artists featured in the exhibition are Karen Glaser, Deborah M. Mitchell, Deedra Ludwig, Jacqueline Roch, Mark Goodenough, Myrna Massey, Mollie Doctrow, Tom Weinkle, Ailyn Hoey, Wendy Burk and Eric Magrane. Anne McCrary Sullivan, who was recently awarded a Fulbright professorship to teach in Nigeria at the Calabar University, will have poetry on view.
