Explore Chatham’s Heritage: Free Documentary Screening on Artist Alice Stallknecht at Orpheum Theater

The Atwood Museum is starting its 2024 season with a collaboration with the Chatham Orpheum Theater. This partnership focuses on Alice Stallknecht, a notable artist in the museum's collection. Her works are on display in the Stallknecht Mural Barn throughout the season.

Alice Stallknecht is known for her paintings of Chatham's community life, including local people, birds, boats, and weathervanes. Her distinctive style places her among the respected American Regionalist Painters, a group that depicted the lives of working-class Americans in the 1930s.

A documentary about Stallknecht's life and work will be shown at the Chatham Orpheum Theater. This screening aims to provide a detailed understanding of her contributions to American art and the cultural narratives she captured.
