What a wonderful evening opportunity to come out and view this spectacular collection of paintings by the beloved Bridgeville, Delaware artist Jack Lewis (1912-2012). 

The Historic Odessa Foundation is honored to be the northern Delaware venue to exhibit the wonderful collection of paintings by the beloved Delaware Artist Jack Lewis (1912-2012). 

On display with accompanying contextual material is a small classical molded bisque porcelain bust of the English Quaker Elizabeth “Betsy” Gurney Fry (1780-1845), originally created in 1848 by the London sculptor Mary Rivers. 

The Historic Odessa Foundation is proud to showcase a representation of artworks created by the Advanced Placement Art and Design studio students of Middletown High School, under the direction of art teacher Kate Huffman.  These high school seniors have worked over the course of the school year, and beyond, to develop a studio process comparable to the college level.

The presentation is titled “Archaeology 101 - Introduction to Archaeology - Digging More Than Dirt”, presented by John Bansch, Volunteer Coordinator of Archaeology Projects, Historic Odessa Foundation.
