Rochelle News-Leader | 2024 opens with new artists on display at Coliseum Museum in Oregon



The new year brings new artists to the Coliseum Museum of Art, Antiques & Americana (CMAAA) with exhibits by Scott Ide, Dick Cholke, Bob Cholke, and Betty Predmore.

OREGON – The new year brings new artists to the Coliseum Museum of Art, Antiques & Americana (CMAAA) with exhibits by Scott Ide, Dick Cholke, Bob Cholke, and Betty Predmore.

Scott Ide, of Rochelle, is the Feature Artist for January, with his display of digital photography of local and national scenes. Dick Cholke, of Pecatonica, is presenting his watercolor art in conjunction with his brother Bob Cholke of Rockford, who is showing his digital photography work. Their display is in the Lowden Gallery during January and February. And Betty Predmore, of Dixon, has her watercolor art on display in the Taft Gallery through the month of January.

On Friday, Jan. 19, the Coliseum Museum will highlight these exhibits with an Artist Reception from 6-8 p.m., with music by Lee Murdock of Kaneville. Noted as a fluent instrumentalist on six and 12-string guitars, Murdock combines ragtime, Irish, blues and folk styles with this flair for storytelling in songs. His musical influences span fifteen generations and combine original compositions with traditional music.

The reception is sponsored by Kathe Wilson of Oregon.

The CMAAA mission is to present Art, Antiques, Americana and history through permanent and rotating exhibits, workshops, music, theater and more. Additional information can be found on the website, www.cmaaa.org and Facebook page, www.facebook.com/ColiseumMuseum/
