BLOOMINGTON, MN (PNAN) – Set to open Friday, November 20, 2026 in the Atrium Gallery at the Bloomington Center for the Arts, “Contours of the Past and Today” is a solo exhibition by Minnesota pen-and-ink artist Stefanie Kiihn, showcasing a collection of the artist’s intricate pen-and-ink art maps alongside related historical studies.

“My work investigates neighborhoods and parks to match historic maps to current streets and buildings,” says Kiihn. “I research the people and architecture of the past to locate the ghost-like footprints that are left. In this exhibit, you will see a combination of my art maps and related studies.”

The exhibition runs through January 3, 2027. A free public artist reception will take place on Sunday, November 22, 2026, from 1:00-3:00 pm.
