Testimonials
“After writing six books and dozens of magazine articles on Norman Rockwell, after speaking to hundreds of audiences about him and after viewing almost every exhibit of his work, I can truly say that the Norman Rockwell display at the Gaylord Opryland Resort & Convention Center brings his famous Saturday Evening Post covers to life and is the finest representation I have seen of the memorable paintings of a beloved American genius. No one should miss this unique exhibition of nostalgia, patriotism and artistic Americana.”
—Dr. Don Stoltz, author of The Life and Work of Norman Rockwell and Norman Rockwell expert
“Rockwell’s America joyfully celebrates the indomitable human spirit, reminding us to embrace life with a healthy dose of laughter, curiosity, imagination and introspection. The transformation of Mr. Rockwell’s works into three-dimensional dioramas is a brilliant concept that brings viewers, young and old, squarely in to the mind’s eye of America’s favorite artist…”
—Jeanne Kelsay, President, Curtis Publishing Company representing The Saturday Evening Post
“This is an incredible opportunity for families to embrace these unforgettable images that have so accurately captured laughter, triumphs, trials and successes of the 20th century American experience. To house an exhibit featuring such a renowned American icon is an honor for the museum and we trust visitors will take this opportunity to step back in time in such an immersive way.”
—Max Ary, Executive Director, Omniplex
“The overall exhibition is an emotional experience. There’s a depth to it that I don’t think people will expect. The detail and breadth of what Rockwell did really comes into focus.”
—Cathy Feree, Director of International Traveling Exhibits, The Children’s Museum of Indianapolis
