Art Reception: Richard Thompson’s Eye

An evening reception celebrates the paintings of Richard Thompson (1945–2021), featuring three decades of landscapes created between 1988 and 2020. The exhibition brings together works shaped by the Willamette Valley, where Thompson grew up on his family’s farm and found lasting inspiration in its fields, barns, and roadside flowers. His paintings were exhibited on five continents and twice in the Whitney Biennial, while Oregon remained his home. Guests can view the artwork, meet friends of the Estate, and enjoy hors d’oeuvres and drinks. The exhibition is free and open to the public.
