The snowfall and chilly temperatures these last two weeks inspired us to fill one of our exhibit cases with images of winter from our collections. We thought we would share this exhibit with you online since the semester is over and many may not have an opportunity to come in and see it in person.
The photographs were taken by our graduate assistant, Caylan Evans. I would like to thank him for all of his help with this blog post.
