Artist Reception for “Expanding Voices: perspectives on birding”
July 29, 2021 @ 3:00 pm – 5:00 pm
Included with admission
Last year asked a lot of us—and taught us even more. Our habitual systems hit rock bottom under the weight of the pandemic, economic hardship, and social injustice. Voices rose, and long-time institutions were loudly questioned. New ways of experiencing and perceiving our world opened our minds to new comprehension. How could our art, our creativity, our practices remain unaffected?
We are a museum about and for birds and conservation. We are part of a community of birders, artists, conservationists, and learners. Yet each of our experiences and perspectives may be unseen or unknown to someone else, even in the same community. We hope this show will speak to you—telling both your story and relaying others’ points of view.
Today, explore the art and meet some of our artists, poets, writers, and photographers. Enjoy cool drinks (non-alcoholic, please bring your own mug/cup), and admire art, discuss conservation, and relax in our pollinator sanctuaries.
