Kingfisher photographer Michael Louthan will soon have a month-long exhibit of some of his work on display in the city in which he was raised.

The Bartlesville Conference Center - also known at The Center - will host a fine art display of Louthan’s photography in December.

An internationally recognized and published landscape photographer, Louthan was raised in Bartlesville.

He graduated Sooner High School in Bartlesville in 1971 and Phillips University in 1975. The exhibit of large images will show the interplay of light on landscape and includes his travels this year to Patagonia, Norway, Iceland, Canada and Indonesia as well as the southwest United States.

It will include framed images and large acrylics.

“I’m always seeking adventure, great light and wonderful locations for my photography,” Louthan said.

“And I enjoy sharing what I find with my friends and neighbors”.

All items will be for sale with alternate sizes available on order.

A reception will be held from 5 to 7 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 2, with refreshments.

Louthan will host an additional reception from 1 to 5 p.m. Sunday, Dec. 3.

Louthan will be welcoming two guests.

One is Bob Fraser, former CEO of Woolaroc Museum and Wildlife Preserve.

Fraser will be offering and signing copies of his latest book, “Frankly Speaking – Tales of Frank Phillips and the Magic of Woolaroc.”

An extra-special guest will be Mrs. Tommie (Payne) Flegal, first grade educator emeritus and Louthan’s 1959 first grade teacher from Bartlesville Will Rogers, who will also be joined by her daughter Julie Smallwood.

The fine art will be on display during December in regular building hours.

The Lyon Gallery (third floor) and Convention Center Building were designed and built by the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation and share the plaza with the Wright-designed Price Tower, his only skyscraper.
