Rooney’s bold, lively colors and semi-abstract, nature-inspired landscape s are fresh, modern and engaging.

Rooney began painting in earnest in 2008 under the mentorship of local arti st Peg Ginsberg—but art has always been a quiet presence in his life.

Rooney’s residency at the Driftless Historium is rendered even more poign ant by the fact that his

great-great-great-uncle was Ebenezer Brigham, Dane County’s first permane nt settler, with a robust presence in Wisconsin’s early history. In fact,
 Jonathan honored his family heritage by sponsoring the new “Brigham’s Inn” exhibit!

Rooney’s art display is viewable during the Historium’s open hours of W ednesday through Sunday, 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. in the Kalscheur Family Fo undation Community Education Room.
