Events for April 22, 2010
Out on a Limb, adventures with nature and art
We have brought the outdoors, indoors! Create a nature's symphony in the Forest Jam, climb into our treehouse, send leaves whirling through space in the Whirlwind Tree (then rake them up and do it again!), write an ode to Nature at our storytelling table, then build a home for a gnome. This travelling exhibition was developed by the San Jose Children's Museum and will travel on to the Boston Children's Museum in June.
April Gallery Exhibit – Postcard Perceptions: Photographs by Joshua Taylor
Local photographer Joshua Taylor captures the beauty of Holyoke’s past and present with photographs of iconic Holyoke inspired by images from vintage postcards. Joshua Taylor’s modern-day incarnations compare Holyoke’s idealized past and the potential he sees for the city’s future. On view through May 3.
