ArtsaRound is excited to welcome celebrated artist and preservationist Robert Kroeger to the ArtsaRound Gallery this May for a special month-long exhibition and book signing event. The exhibit will launch with a public reception on Friday, May 2, from 6:00 PM to 7:30 PM, and remain open to visitors each Friday and Saturday throughout the month.

This event supports the ArtsaRound Gallery’s mission to promote, connect, and support local artists while building a strong, art-inspired community in Pickaway County.

Robert Kroeger’s fine art exhibit will showcase approximately 25 paintings of historic barns from Pickaway County, reflecting his deep appreciation for rural heritage and craftsmanship. Each painting tells a story—capturing the beauty, character, and legacy of Ohio’s agricultural past.

During the reception, Kroeger will share fascinating stories behind many of the barns featured in his paintings, bringing history to life through his words and work.

Following the presentation, attendees will have the opportunity to meet the artist and purchase signed copies of his books; Historic Barns of Ohio, Round Barns of America, and Stone Barns of America (East of the Mississippi).

All book sales and art purchases will directly benefit the ArtsaRound Gallery and help support its ongoing arts programming in the community.
