Peninsula State Park artist-in-residence program to feature Madison native

DOOR COUNTY, Wis. -- The Peninsula School of Art, in partnership with the Peninsula State Park, announced Tuesday the relaunch of a 100-year-old initiative of artists-in-residence at the park.

PenArt said the initiative, meant to bring art and nature together, will feature Tomiko Jones, a Madison native. Jones is known for his creative approaches in addressing the mysteries of nature, rebirth, and entropy, as well as the social, cultural, and geopolitical transitions associated with climate change. He will be working and living in the park.

PenArt said Jones will produce work at the school, at Peninsula State Park, and in community activities in the park. Jones will begin living in the park on July 30, and the residency will culminate in an exhibition at PenArt on August 24.
