Véronique Plesch, the James M. Gillespie Professor of Art, presented a lecture on the frescoes of the South Solon Meeting House on Aug. 17, 2025. Close to 100 people (artists and people from the art world, scholars, and the general public, both local and from out of town) attended a summer celebration to support this important landmark. Plesch, who sits on the board of the South Solon Historical Society, previously taught a course about the meeting house and oversaw the students who created its now-official website.
