The Lights Above: The Astro-Photography of Sean Parker

Arizona-based photographer Sean Parker will make his museum exhibition debut at the Everhart with his striking images that have been featured in Smithsonian, Discovery, The New York Times, Arizona Highways, and other publications.

After spending nearly eight years as an I.T. computer technician, Parker turned his lifelong passion for photography into a full-time career, drawing on his technical expertise to master digital photography. This exhibition showcases his cinematic images of Arizona's dramatic landscapes and the awe-inspiring night skies above the desert.

An opening for the artist will be held on August 20 from 5–7:30 p.m., where he will be available to discuss his work. The Everhart is proud to present this exciting exhibition of one of the nation’s most promising cinematic photographers.

Austin Burke: NEPA Through and Through

That Austin Burke loves his roots in the anthracite region is an understatement. Burke’s paintings celebrate the richness of life throughout NEPA, where the artist has resided his entire life. After a successful 40-year career as president of the Scranton Chamber of Commerce, and working for the state under then Governor Ed Rendell, Burke returned to his art full time and took further classes at his alma mater Keystone College, where he was awarded an honorary Doctorate in Human Letters. The exhibition will showcase Burke’s renderings of well-known Scranton and NEPA landmarks. The Everhart is proud to bring Austin Burke’s interpretations to the area, city and its people he has championed his entire life.

There will be an opening reception with the artist in October.
