Show Run: 100 years

100 Years: Jules André Smith and the Sand Roads to Solitude marks one hundred years since that first arrival, a decade before Smith would find what is today the Maitland Art Center. The exhibition takes its structure from The Sand Roads to Solitude , his 1951 essay published in Ford Times, written not as a traveler passing through, but as someone who had long since made Florida his home. Visitors move through the galleries following the arc of Smith’s own words, with sketchbooks, works on paper, paintings, and archival material illuminating the landscapes and communities that shaped him.
