Two exhibits currently on display at ARTSNCT
The Photography of Dan Froelich, a special exhibit featuring the stunning photography of the late Dan Froelich, a native of Newcomerstown and 1984 graduate of Newcomerstown High School, is on display through the end of April at ARTSNCT, Arts Center of Newcomerstown.
Froelich was an outdoor enthusiast and relocated to Arizona in 1991 after graduating from Kent State University.
Much of his spectacular landscape and nature photography was taken throughout the desert, canyons, mountain regions, and cave formations of the Southwest, including Havasu Falls located within Havasupai tribal lands, the Grand Canyon, the Sonoran Desert, Lake Powell, Flagstaff, and Antelope Canyon and Canyon de Chelly National Monument located on Navajo tribal lands.
Photographic images also include Woods Canyon Lake, Arches National Park, Valley of the Gods, Newspaper Rock State Historic Monument, City of Rocks State Park, and Provo Canyon’s Bridal Veil Falls.
In addition to capturing arresting photos while hiking through America’s Southwest, Froelich’s travels allowed him to record the natural beauty of the Hawaiian Islands, Belize, New Zealand’s Fox Glacier, Australia’s Northern Territory, the island of Tasmania, and Scotland.
Froelich passed away from colorectal cancer in December 2021 at age 55, yet his timeless photography memorializes what he loved most about this world.
Another exhibit, Art to Love, is a collection of artworks created by students at Newcomerstown High School.
The student exhibition was on display at ARTSNCT the month of March and attracted more than 200 visitors.
The collection of art has now moved online to ARTSNCT’s Facebook page for all to enjoy.
Coming in May, the center will feature a trio of artists from the Coshocton Art Guild.
ARTSNCT, Arts Center of Newcomerstown is located at 304 South College St. in Newcomerstown. For more information, call 740-575-5710 or visit www.artsnct.org.
