MHLEC News Release
REISTERSTOWN, Md.—The fourth Monday program at the Maryland Horse Library and Education Center (MHLEC) welcomes acclaimed artist Sam Robinson on Monday, July 24 at 4:00 p.m.
Renowned for his sporting art, Robinson is an award-winning fine arts master who regards his subjects “as broader than just the races and meets. The setting is the country and indeed the people who make it work. I make informal portraits of the large cast of characters, and views of the farms and woods.”
Robinson will discuss his passion for his subjects and why he believes his work is important to the overall public view of the sport. His art will be on display, with select items offered for sale.
The discussion will take place at the Maryland Horse Library & Education Center at 321 Main Street in Reisterstown.
