From the museum: Nan Coffey is a San Diego based artist with a background in animation. She has developed a stylized design aesthetic and freeform methods to promote connectivity, inclusivity, and love while drawing inspiration from her childhood obsessions with cinema, music, television, and pop culture. Her style, which she calls “Art All Over,” makes use of surfaces that extend beyond the traditional canvas.

Award-winning author Jude Atwood will discuss and sign copies of his new fantasy horror novel for young readers, "Maybe There Are Witches". About the Novel: Middle school student Clara Hutchins and her mother inherit a creaky Victorian bed and breakfast on the outskirts of Biskopskulla, Illinois, a lonely historic site settled by a group of religious fanatics. In the present day, it’s just a tiny town—a village, technically—where Clara’s prospects for new friends are as low as the population. As she adjusts to her new surroundings, Clara discovers that her family has a history in the region: one hundred forty years ago, one of her ancestors was hanged as a witch from the white oak tree on the edge of town. When Clara finds a mildewed diary in the basement, she’s even able to read the rambling thoughts of this long-dead relative. But when the book’s predictions about Clara’s own life start coming true, she realizes those 19th-century villagers had a point: her great-great-great grandmother really did have an unearthly ability to peer into the future! Now, a break-in at the tomb of the old cult’s founder means a great evil has returned to Biskopskulla. Clara and her newest friends—two of the weirdest boys in school—must join forces to decipher the messages of a murdered witch and stop an unnatural catastrophe from destroying the town. But as they quest through historic cemeteries, backcountry libraries, and high-octane academic bowl tournaments, something sinister is lurking, watching, and waiting…
