ARCHITECTURE | See 19th and 20th century Springfield

See the architectural history of the city of Springfield in more than 40 photos dating back to the 19 th and 20 th century during the Shifting Sands exhibition on display Jan. 8-27 at the Springfield Art Association. The Shifting Sands exhibit is the result of a collaboration between the Springfield Art Association and the Sangamon Valley Collection of the Lincoln Library, made possible thanks to a generous donation from Ace Sign Company. This display offers visitors the opportunity to see the architectural evolution of Springfield. Over time, some buildings have been lost, some restored and repurposed, while the fates of other buildings still hang in the balance. This exhibit brings the stories of those buildings to life. The opening reception will occur Friday, Jan. 8, 5-7:30 p.m., with a gallery talk taking place at 6 p.m. For more information about Shifting Sands: Springfield’s Architectural Legacy visit http://edwardsplace.org.
