Presented in commemoration of the nation’s 250th anniversary, Across this Land: America at 250 is a contemporary art exhibition celebrating the American landscape and its enduring presence across time. Featuring works by various artists across a range of media, the exhibition explores landscapes, waterways, urban environments, and familiar spaces that shape everyday life and collective memory.
Opening alongside America at 250, Lifeworks in Photography, features black-and-white landscape photography by acclaimed photographer Clyde Butcher. Known for his large-format images of the Florida Everglades and other natural environments across the United States, Butcher’s work captures the intricate beauty, scale, and stillness of the American wilderness. Often referred to as “America’s Everglades Photographer,” Butcher is celebrated for his meticulous darkroom process and commitment to environmental conservation through photography.
“Together, these exhibitions encourage visitors to reflect on the landscapes and environments that connect us,” said Museum Director, Juliana Forero. “From contemporary interpretations of place and identity to Clyde Butcher’s iconic photographic work, both exhibitions invite audiences to experience the land not only as scenery, but as something deeply tied to memory, community, and shared experience.”
In conjunction with the exhibition, the Museum will also host a lecture with Butcher on Saturday, June 13, at 4 p.m. During the program, Butcher will discuss his decades-long career, photographic process, environmental advocacy, and experiences documenting some of America’s most treasured natural landscapes. Advanced registration is required. Tickets can be purchased online at CoralSpringsMuseum.org/Clyde.
The June 5 Opening Reception is free and open to the public. Light refreshments will be available. Both exhibitions will remain on view through August 1 and will serve as the last exhibitions on view in the current gallery location. The gallery will relocate to its new location in Downtown Coral Springs in Fall 2026.
