Margarita (Hussissian) Bauer
Margarita “Maggie” Bauer was born in 1930 and passed away in 2019 at the age of 89 in Barrington, Illinois. She was a highly accomplished artist and educator whose career spanned decades. Maggie attended the Art Institute of Chicago, where she later taught, and also served as an instructor at Northwestern University and Harper College.
Throughout her career, Maggie explored a wide range of artistic media and techniques, including acrylics, oils, washes, metal sculpture, fiberglass, and more. She became especially well known in Chicago as a portrait artist, painting numerous Chicago Bears players, including Walter Payton, as well as prominent business leaders and influential figures throughout the region. While brief, she also worked with the Carter administration as a art consultant for foreign embassies.
After purchasing property in Sedona, Arizona, Maggie developed a deep fascination with Native peoples and their culture, capturing their strength and beauty through her art. Her work reflected a profound spiritual dimension and a desire, as she often expressed it, to “touch the angels.” She found beauty in all aspects of life and dedicated herself to revealing that beauty through her art.

April Robinson is a North Idaho-based artist whose work explores beauty, identity, and the quiet resilience of the human spirit. After years spent in social work and ministry, she returned to art as a place of healing-discovering in the creative process a sense of freedom, presence, and renewal.
Working in oils, acrylic, mixed media, and glass mosaic, April creates layered, expressive pieces inspired by her travels, relationships, and inner life. Her work moves between realism and impression, often infused with vibrant color and emotional depth.
Rooted in her belief that art speaks where words fall short, April’s work is an invitation-to pause, to feel, and to reconnect with both the seen and unseen beauty within and around us.
Stop by Pottery Place Plus in the Historic Liberty Building at 203 N. Washington St. from June 29th until July 25th to see April’s artwork; come by the shop from 5-8pm on Second Friday July 10th for a reception to meet the artist.

There’s trouble in River City when a fast-talking salesman gets his heart stolen by the town librarian. Meredith Willson’s six-time, Tony Award-winning musical comedy The Music Man follows fast-talking traveling salesman, Harold Hill, as he cons the people of River City, Iowa, into buying instruments and uniforms for a boys’ band that he vows to organize – this, despite the fact that he doesn’t know a trombone from a treble clef. His plans to skip town with the cash are foiled when he falls for Marian, the librarian, who transforms him into a respectable citizen by curtain’s fall. Featuring songs such as “Seventy-Six Trombones,” “Trouble,” “‘Til There Was You,” “Pickalittle” and “Gary, Indiana,” The Music Man is a family-friendly story to be shared with every generation.
