Exhibits and Events

"Small Town Cafe's, then and now" is the theme for our summer exhibit.  As you drive across the country and stop  for a cup of hot coffee, will it be in one of these unique shops where neon signs, fresh baked pies, well worn seats  delight tired drivers with shared stories and jokes about the simpler times in our very busy world.?  We will highlight the art work from one of our volunteers and recent college graduate, Bryan Schutmaat.

Bryan Schutmaat is a local fine art photographer whose work has been widely exhibited in galleries across the United States and Europe.  He is a member of Young Photographers United, a highly selective Belgium based photography collective.

Recently one of his photos was chosen for publication in Humble Arts Foundation's Collector's Guide to emerging Art Photography, a book showcasing some of the world's most promising upcoming photographers.

Bryan's photos can be purchased through Gallery Wanted Paris (wantedparis.com) and his work can be viewed online at his portfolio site (bryanschutmaat.com)

League City had its own share of cafe's over the years and stories and ads about these will also be included.  It is hoped that more memories can be jogged by visiting the exhibit and this cafe history will not be lost.

The Cafe exhibit opens soon and will run through the end of September, 2009.

The October Exhibit will highlight the 20th Anniversary of the League City Historical Society.  More information about this exhibit will be published later this summer.
This exhibit will run through January 2010.
