Featuring photographer Chris Lauber
Step into a rare visual archive capturing the early years of Key West’s favorite son.
This special photography installation features a curated collection of vintage concert images by Chris Lauber, taken during the 1970s as both the music and the movement were just beginning to take shape. These photographs go beyond nostalgia—they’re firsthand visual records of a formative era, offering an intimate look at the energy, spirit, and evolution of an artist whose connection to Key West became part of music history.
Following his appearance as a featured guest at Tales from the Chart Room, Chris will open the exhibit and be on hand to meet guests, share stories behind the images, and offer personal insight into the moments captured through his lens.
The exhibit will remain on display throughout the festival, giving attendees the opportunity to experience this rare collection all weekend long.
