X-posting ... but hopefully worthy.
Mitchell Museum @ Cedarhurst in Mount Vernon, IL (75 miles east of St. Louis on I-64) will be exhibiting approximately 70 of Ansel Adams prints that he personally printed for his daughter's private collection. The exhibit opens on February 25, 2012 ... I'll be there.
If you've ever wanted to see Adams' work up close & personal, this should be one not to miss.
Mitchell Museum is a smaller, intimate museum that should be excellent for viewing this very personal collection.
Since I live in Mt. Vernon, it seems phenomenal to me that this collection will be coming here. I'm looking forward to meeting some fellow FM'ers, so be sure and let me know if you're coming to view this rare & personal collection. I'm sure I'll be there more than once for this one.

I was able to catch the Ansel Adams exhibit (over 130 pieces) last year at the Booth Western Art Museum in Cartersville, Ga just north of Atlanta. What a treat.

Thanks for the heads up Rusty. Any one that gets near Indianapolis may want to visit the State museum that has an incredible display of photos from Shakelton's 1914 expedition by photographer Frank Hurly. It's well worth the visit if your in the area.

Update ... On April 28, Dr. Michael Adams (son of Ansel) will be speaking at the exhibit. I was in the know @ this, but couldn't say anything until it was confirmed, official and released.
Mitchell Museum is a small venue compared with the likes of Chicago, NY, Atlanta, LA, etc. It should have an 'intimate' feel to it that you wouldn't get in the larger venues. Hope you can make it.
