Steven Lee Adams Fine Arts

Fodor's choice

Painter Steve Adams has transformed Helper's historic JCPenney building into a glorious showcase for his impressionist takes on nature scenes from all over the world. He shares the space with painter Tim Morse, whose depictions of the Southwest are graphic and vibrant. Most days you can see at least one of them working in this huge studio and gallery. Lofty ceilings with a stuffed elk and motorcycles on display make this a memorable spot to peruse.
