Main gallery: DON FULLMER RETROSPECTIVE
DECEMBER 5th, 2025 - JANUARY 13th, 2026
The Hutchinson Art Center is proud to feature the work of Hutchinson artist Don Fullmer in our Main Gallery during the month of December into January.
Don Fullmer is a painter whose works are the creative culmination of a lifelong quest and desire for knowledge.
Stylistically, Fullmer’s influences include abstract artists, such as Willem de Kooning, Jackson Pollock, and Richard Diebenkorn, whose techniques Fullmer experimented with and helped him develop his own artistic process. He also has a passion for printmaking and finds inspiration in the study of culture, history, myth, nature, religion, and science.
Fullmer’s work is not just a formal artistic exercise, but a way for him to visually communicate his thoughts with the wider world.
This exhibition is on display in the Main Gallery from December 5th, 2025 - January 13th, 2026.
Front Gallery: PHOTOGRAPHy BY FRANCIS c. HAWKS
NOVEMBER 21st - DECEMBER 13th, 2025
The Hutchinson Art Center is happy to have the work of local photographer Francis C. Hawks back in our Front Gallery during the months of November and December.
When asked how long he has been taking photos, Francis C. Hawks stated, “All my life.” Hawks is an avid photographer who loves to travel with an eye for capturing scenes from nature and expertly framing the man-made structures he finds within it. The world – to reference Shakespeare – is truly his oyster when it comes to choosing interesting subject matter!
This time around, Hawks has set his lens on capturing beautiful scenes of sunsets, sunrises, and northern lights in Reno County, along with some interesting rural environments in the neighboring McPherson County.
So come on in and travel with Francis C. Hawks through this en‘light’ening exhibition.
This exhibition is on display in the Front Gallery from November 21st - December 13th, 2025.
