Works such as the scene of a harvested corn field at sunset, a
digitally enhanced photo by Randy Washam, speaks to the everyday
life of midwest farmers and the end of the day when the fields are
empty and the grain bins full.

that this community was once part of the Native American nations and
that their history is a part of our history.
