Discover the histories of these buildings where the Zagars lived, worked, made art, and built their family since 1968. Explore how they created these spaces through never-before-seen archival material, including original photographs, historic documents, and artworks that show each site’s development. The exhibition highlights Julia’s folk art store the Eye’s Gallery, the Zagars’ current home, Isaiah’s current studio, a former rental property, and Philadelphia’s Magic Gardens.
