The Kalamazoo Living History ShowTM Proudly Presents This Year’s Theme:

“The Painter Embodies Forth...All the Heart Feels”* Artists and Naturalists on the American Frontier *George Winter, 1829

Artists and naturalists shaped the world’s perception of the early American frontier. Without photography or electronic communications, the pencil and brush of frontier artists were indispensable in recording the indigenous peoples, plants and animals of this continent. We owe a great debt to artists such as George Catlin and George Winter for their sensitive work with the Native people of North America, as well as naturalists like John and William Bartram and Thomas Say, who described and collected the exotic fauna and flora. Join the Kalamazoo Living History Show as we examine their roles in documenting and describing early America.
