While cleaning out her mother’s house, artist Tara Moorman discovered a trove of family photos, some dating back to the 1870s. This inspired her to paint a series of watercolors depicting those family members at the time the photos were taken. “Letters To My Ancestors” is on exhibit now through August at the Cedar Rapids Museum of Art. There will be an opening reception where you can meet Tara and learn more about the project on June 1.
