Local Legends: Franklin and Mark McMahon
In 2015, the Historical Society honored Mark McMahon and his late father, Franklin McMahon as Local Legends.
Over 200 guests joined us for an interesting conversation between Mark McMahon and interviewer Bill Kurtis. We went behind-the-scenes with the McMahon family, artistic virtuosos who witnessed, drew and told stories of pivotal historical moments as artist-reporters, and learned the inside stories from their unique and perceptive vantage points.
After the conversation concluded, guests continued on to a reception and viewed original artwork created by Franklin and Mark McMahon.
Proceeds from this event supported our programs and exhibits.
