Join us to celebrate the end of “Painting an Inclusive History: Maine Women in Politics,” our exhibition featuring portraits by artist Jerri Whitman.

We will be closing with a talk by Libby Bischof, PhD, Executive Director, Osher Map Library and Smith Center for Cartographic Education, about what portraits and images can reveal about particular eras.

Professor Bischof explores American society through the lens of history — and the lens of a camera. A nineteenth-century American cultural historian, she specializes in the history of photography, particularly in Maine.
