In honor of the season, the FAC Museum presents a spring-oriented selection of objects from the FAC collection. The paintings, drawings, prints, and photographs capture the delights of spring in the Rocky Mountains. In these images, you will see rushing streams, late snow, wildflowers, and passing downpours – all markers of this tumultuous, beautiful, and brief season.
