The Painter's Subjects - Landscape, Figure, Still Life: Selected Works from the Collection of Dwight and Helen Carlisle is now on exhibit through May 18th at the Jule Collins Smith Museum.

JCSM’s ongoing exhibition series, Auburn Collects, showcases significant private art collections in the Auburn community. Our latest installation in this series features a selection of works from the collection of Dwight and Helen Carlisle.
