Photographic artist Larry Kanfer challenges himself to find the subtle beauty in the everyday. The Associated Press praised his work, saying, “Kanfer’s gift is that he can endow the ordinary landscape… with an almost magical sense of beauty.” After receiving his degree in architecture from the University of Illinois in 1979, he opened his first photography gallery and studio in Champaign, IL. Most well known for his Prairiescapes®, he has brought acclaim to the Midwest through award-winning calendars & original artwork that captures the beauty of the region.

This special exhibit will conclude with Larry Kanfer presenting a program on Friday, February 21, as part of the Atlanta Library Dinner Program season. Dinner Programs are held at the Palms Grill Café/Union Hall Building. Dinner begins at 5:30 pm, with the evening’s program starting at 7:00pm.
