Jack Lewis: Delaware’s Hidden Gem
August 7 – November 22, 2020
The Biggs Museum is proud to feature the work of our “Ultimate Hidden Gem” artists, Jack Lewis. This exhibition highlights rarely seen views across the Delmarva Peninsula from the collections of the Biggs Museum, the Rehoboth Art League and the Delaware Division of Historical and Cultural Affairs.
Since Lewis was known for his local scenes, we invite you to participate in a self guided socially distanced road trip, to see some of the sites that inspired these works, noting how they were painted and what they look like today.
Explore the Eastern Shore of Maryland, as well as each County in Delaware. Download our Jack Lewis Driving Tour with map for side by side comparisons, or explore our interactive map.
