The Great Hollow Photographers Club presented a check for $1600 to Chad Seewagen, Executive Director of Great Hollow Nature Preserve on July 29, 2025. The money was raised by the eighth Great Hollow Juried Art Show 2025 to support Great Hollow’s environmental education, research, and conservation initiatives.
“The Gate House Barn was full of wonderful paintings and photographs again this year. And a record crowd for the opening on Friday May 16th! We love having this art show and appreciate the celebration of nature in our area while also raising important funds to support Great Hollow’s mission. We are grateful to the artists, organizers, sponsors, and visitors who made the show a success and wonderful event for the community.” says Chad Seewagen.
