Sunrise at Tunnel View, Aaron Bachler

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, especially if you’re looking at the photography exhibit up on the third floor of the library. This exhibit from Southern Oregon University student Aaron Bachler features photos taken in California, Oregon, Arizon, Colorado, Utah, and Washington DC—on display now until the end of winter term.

LaDuke is also known for her engagement with social issues and cultural awareness. Her recent book, Bountiful Harvest: From Land to Table from White Cloud Press, takes inspiration from her personal experience with agriculture workers. In 2010, LaDuke was invited to spend time with the men and women who harvest the orchard, vineyards, and farms in Southern Oregon. She listened to their stories and was inspired to create vibrant paintings that capture the spirit of the fields and orchards.
