SUMMARY:An Evening of Art\, History\, and Storytelling
DESCRIPTION:  \nAn Evening of Art\, History\, and Storytelling at Bonnyconnellan Castle with Robert Kroeger \nStep into the timeless charm of Bonnyconnellan Castle for a delightful evening celebrating art\, local heritage\, and unforgettable stories. Hosted by John and Heather Moffitt\, this special gathering features nationally recognized artist and author Dr. Robert Kroeger\, whose passion for preserving the past shines through his work. \nDr. Kroeger is known for his vivid oil paintings and books that honor America’s historic barns—those weathered sentinels of rural life. Each piece tells a story\, capturing the spirit of the families and communities that built them. \nGuests will enjoy the chance to meet Dr. Kroeger\, hear tales from his artistic journey\, and purchase signed copies of his books. His blend of artistry and storytelling has made him a beloved figure in rural preservation circles across the country. \nOriginal barn paintings by Dr. Kroeger will be on display and available for purchase—including a special work featuring Bonnyconnellan Castle itself. This one-of-a-kind painting\, a tribute to the event’s stunning setting\, will be a highlight of the evening’s gallery. \nAs a meaningful bonus\, proceeds from the event benefit the Shelby County Historical Society\, supporting efforts to preserve and celebrate the region’s rich history. \nAdding a local twist\, hosts John and Heather Moffitt will share their personal journey of discovering\, restoring\, and reviving Bonnyconnellan Castle. Their story—equal parts fairy tale and fixer-upper—perfectly complements the evening’s theme of honoring the past with heart and creativity. \nThe night will wrap with a Q&A session featuring both the Moffitts and Dr. Kroeger\, giving guests a chance to dive deeper into the stories behind the art and architecture. \nA castle\, a cause\, and a canvas full of stories—what more could you ask for? Join us for a whimsical and inspiring evening at Bonnyconnellan Castle. \nTickets for this event are $10 each and will be limited
