Tony Umile: Captured Images

Tony Umile: Captured Images

Firehouse Art Center (Longmont) 

March 10 – April 9, 2023

Opening Reception: March 10, 6 pm – 9 pm

After Tony Umile passed away suddenly in 2022, friends and family committed to sharing his work and celebrating the mark he left on his community. “Captured Images” is a comprehensive look at Umile’s growth as a photographer, highlighting his unique humor and wit, as well as his love for travel and experimentation in the medium. Three decades of work will be detailed in this show, with guests getting a chance to peek into Umile’s dark room and office, complete with slides, handwritten notes, awards, letters, and other items, giving the viewer an idea of the man behind the camera. It is both a celebration of life and a testament to Umile’s beloved standing in the Longmont creative community, a moving reflection on living, losing, and memorializing.
