Introduction

  • Temporal Bridge - Shadows of Milwaukee opened last week at MOWA on the Lake at Saint John's.

  • Show runs until August 31st, 2025 and is open and free to the public Wednesday - Sunday 9:30-4pm.

  • I was excited to see so much support and interest in the show. The director said it was the largest attendance they've ever had.

  • Special thanks to all the publications that promoted and covered the show. - Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, OnMilwaukee, and Art Dose Magazine!

  • The engagement and response was great. After the talk I had over 20 minutes of questions.



Event Day Experiences

  • Everything from the communication, delivery, setup and execution of the show with MOWA was top notch. Hats off to their team and it was a real honor to show and be represented by MOWA to their amazing clients and patrons.

  • My experience with speaking publicly at is pretty limited but this time around I decided to speak to the crowd about my experience instead of reading or trying to recite a scripted speech.

  • I feel this approach allowed me to connect better to the audience and feel more open to share the knowledge that I have obtained over the last 13 years of practicing 19th Century Photography.


    Here are some some of the favorites from the show:
