Michelangelos of Monroe exhibit, June 18th thru October 12th, Tuesdays through Saturdays, 10:00 am to 4:00 pm.
At the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries, stone carvers came to America from Europe to help forge new identities for themselves and buildings all over the country. They quickly became a part of the community and passed down their knowledge to future generations to create a lasting legacy and tradition in Monroe County. Michelangelos of Monroe tells the story of limestone carvers in Monroe County from their artistic process to the impact of their work being on display throughout the region and country.
The Rechter Gallery is a rotating exhibit gallery sponsored by Richard P. Rechter.
