Description
The 2019 Mesa Verde National Park Artist in Residence Program (AIR) is pleased to host writer and photographer, Linda Rose. On Thursday, September 12, from 4:00 pm to 5:00 pm, Rose will discuss her work and experience as a Mesa Verde Artist in Resident during a program at the Far View Lodge Library. The Far View Lodge is located at milepost 15 in Mesa Verde National Park.
Linda Rose is a Mancos resident, and has had a full career working in various aspects of the art world from freelance artist to educator. Her work currently focuses on photo/journal books that feature travels to various parts of the world as well as books on family history. Linda has an MFA from the University of North Texas. For a number of years she worked as an artist doing monumental fiber art works, before entering the world of education where she taught art to students at all levels.
While at Mesa Verde, Linda will photograph and spend time in the backcountry doing creative writing. Her culminating project will be a book called, “Reflections on Mesa Verde.” This project will add one more “tessera” to the “mosaic” which makes up the landscape of Mesa Verde.
Mesa Verde National Park’s Artist-in-Residence (AIR) program provides professional artists the opportunity to become part of a long established tradition of artists creating art in our national parks. The AIR program is managed for the park by the nonprofit Mesa Verde Museum Association. Learn more at https://www.nps.gov/meve/getinvolved/artists_in_residence.htm and at www.mesaverde.org.
