AN EVENING OF FINE ART AND FINE DINING

Artist talk given by Jim Westphalen
Followed by Dinner at the Inn
Photographer Jim Westphalen has always had an affinity for the built landscape; those features and patterns reflecting human occupation within the natural surroundings. His current body of work entitled, Vanish is an ongoing narrative that speaks to the decay of iconic structures in rural America.

Join us on May 11th when Jim will discuss his passion for his subject matter, his photographic technique and his path to becoming one of Vermont’s premier fine art photographers. The evening at the inn comes on the heels of the screening of his documentary “Vanish: Disappearing Icons of Rural America” premiering at the Town Hall Theater in Middlebury on Saturday April 8, 2023. His talk will be followed by a question/answer session and an elegant dinner prepared especially for those attending the event.
