The exhibition theme was titled "Pure Wauconda" and illustrated the seasonal beauty of Wauconda, IL across 25 images. Medias included, print on canvas, print on aluminum and framed art. A lovely catered reception opened the event in July featuring the music of Pink Floyd as a subtle background to the exhibition. Below are several of the images that were on exhibition:
