Butterflies, Birds, Blooms and Bugs — Can You Find the Bugs? A Photography Exhibit by Jerri Reher Haussler On Display through December 21 The Link, 2nd Floor Gallery
The exhibition Butterflies, Birds, Blooms and Bugs — Can You Find the Bugs? offers a glimpse of hope found in the beauty of the natural world that God has created. Through her lens, photographer Jerri Reher Haussler captures moments where His presence is revealed — in the pollen resting on the soft petals of wildflowers along a spring roadside, the sunlight glimmering on a bee’s translucent wings in a summer garden, the gentle movement of a butterfly as it drifts from flower to flower in the fall and the seedpod spilling lacy fluff from a milkweed as winter approaches.
A self-taught photographer with an eye for detail, Jerri finds joy in observing and documenting the world around her. She is also a published author of Entrepreneurs of Hastings: Short Sketches of Some Nebraska Risktakers and Simple Faith, Mighty Faith: A 40-Lesson Devotional and Memoir. Jerri earned her B.A. in Business Education from Nebraska Wesleyan University and an M.A. in Educational Psychology from the University of Nebraska–Lincoln. She retired from Hastings College in 2002 as the Associate Dean of Students. Her photography has been displayed at the Minden Opera House and the Hastings Museum.
All photos are available for purchase and would make a beautiful addition to your office, waiting area or children’s medical clinic. For purchase inquiries, Jerri can be reached at (402) 984-0250 or jerrihaussler@gmail.commailto:jerrihaussler@gmail.com.
This exhibit is free and open to the public daily from 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m.
