George Beard Exhibit

The work of pioneer artist George Beard creates a captivating portrait of the early days of Coalville. Beard’s embrace of glass plate technology skillfully and lovingly documented moments both public and private, and worlds both natural and man-made. Beard’s photographs beautifully capture the transformation of this community across five decades around the turn of the century. The photographs he took of Coalville and the surrounding area are now on display at the Ledges Event Center.
