From Dubois County

Hey Reader,

Tucked into the Blackbox Theatre at the Thyen Clark Cultural Center is Cora Hopf’s gallery of art, meticulously crowned in wooden frames handmade by Chris Dixon.

Walking around the room, the vibrant colors of Cora’s imagination and observations of the world around her flow along the walls in individual displays.

Floating clouds raining pearlescent drops, blinking lights, brightly colored tables with poured acrylic pieces decorated by Cora and her friend, Mia, overseen by a message board of support as she and her family fight an inoperable brain tumor together.

Take some time to stop in. Leave a note and even some support at this link.​

From Dubois County with love.

Matthew and Amy Crane
