Birds at Home will run

September 3 – October 10, 2016

Curated by Joanna Hartell, it features art work by

Robyn Almquist, Elizabeth Ennis, Donna Greenthal, Joanna Hartell, Margaret Heffernan, Ann Higgins, Kate Hyden, James Karpowicz, Pat Sprott, Valerie Taggart and Naomi Teppich.

Paintings, prints, photographs and sculptures by these area artists focused specifically on the birds we see around our homes.

Humans often have a more direct connection with birds than other wild animals, because we love their songs, enjoy their aerobatics, and compulsively watch them. Birds are part of the human experience, and this show focuses on the relationship between humans and birds – at home, in the yard, and in our imaginations. We emphasize that birds have real personalities, like humans!
