SUMMARY:The Life and Art of Charles M. Schulz Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Legendary cartoonist Charles M. Schulz’s legacy is one of cultural influence through his beloved Peanuts comic strip and of humble service in World War II. His wartime experience left a lasting impression on him\, so much so that he became the Capital Campaign Chair of the National D-Day Memorial Foundation from 1998 until his passing in 2000. \nThe National D-Day Memorial is proud to bring The Life and Art of Charles M. Schulz to the Bower Center for the Arts in Bedford\, Virginia. The traveling exhibition\, curated by the Charles M. Schulz Museum and Research Center in Santa Rosa\, California\, U.S.A.\, explores Schulz’s personal history and his role as the sole inspiration and artistic talent behind the most successful comic strip in history. \nGallery admission is free.
