Kemper Nomland, Glen Coffield, 1944. Oil on canvas, 25 x 30 inches.
Curated by Liam Conley (’23) and Kathryn Kishinin (’23), this exhibition explores Lewis & Clark Special Collections’ archives of those who lived in the Civilian Public Service Camps in Oregon from 1942–1945. It explores their philosophies of pacifism, how they supported each other in their cause, and the art they produced while encamped.
