Stuart Allen Levy Exhibit in Hillsboro Exhibit Center

Stuart Allen Levy’s panoramic photographs capture the expansive spaces and dramatic skies of Washington County. The freshly tilled fields and lush crops are a testimony to the agricultural bounty of the farmlands protected by the Urban Growth Boundary. Radiant golden rapeseed and crimson colored clover mark the farming seasons.

Levy’s images were submitted to the Hillsboro Public Art Collection competition, responding to a call for artwork that represents the characteristic landscape, city views or landmarks of Hillsboro. His artwork is on display in the Hillsboro Civic Center Auditorium, 150 East Main Street, through July 2013. Read More
