SUMMARY:Birds and Myth art show continues (September)
DESCRIPTION:Birds and Myth continues in September! Visit often\, as some works are for sale and may go to new homes during the season. \nBirds are some of our teachers\, not only through our senses and observations\, but also through our stories about them. These stories can be factual accounts\, broader myths\, or something in between. Legends\, beliefs\, representations\, truth\, insight\, guidance\, metaphors\, meanings\, and understandings all play a part. \nThe Birds of Vermont Museum’s 2025 art show is centered on the ideas of birds\, myth\, meanings\, metaphors\, and guides. We called for art that brings birds and their meanings to retell an old story\, weaves several together\, represents beliefs\, and/or creates a myth for the future. \nThe show is open when the Museum is (Wednesday – Sundays\, May 1 – October 31) and is included with admission. Admission is free for members. \nExhibiting artists and writers:\nAlice C (Burlington )\nAlison Forrest (Huntington)\nAlyssa B (Colchester)\nAmanda Makepeace (Watkinsville\, GA)\nAnita Michele (Swanton)\nAnnette Goyne (Richford)\nAprille Soons Palmer (South Hero)\nCat McKeen (Essex Junction)\nChris Selin (South Burlington)\nDara Theodora (Fairfax)\nDeana Allgaier (Huntington)\nDeb Runge (Williston)\nDenise Letendre (Castleton)\nElisabeth Mazzilli (Moretown)\nElodie Parthenay (Longueuil\, QC)\nGreg Didyoung (Wilmington)\nHannah Mahar (Grand Isle)\nHeather Rusch Zelonis (Bristol)\nHenry S (Jericho)\nJamie Quint (Richmond)\nJennefer Jolls (Williamstown)\nJessica Wilson (Saint Albans)\nJo Marsan (Johnson)\nJoAnne Wazny (Enosburg Falls)\nJudy Crocker (Burlington )\nJulia S C (South Hero)\nJulie Dunigan (South Hero)\nKarla Van Vliet (Bristol)\nKatrina Meyers (Colchester)\nKay Johnson (Hinesburg)\nKristen Donegan (Essex)\nKristin Dexter (Essex Junction)\nLily Hinrichsen (Bristol)\nLisa Acerbo (Trumbull\, CT)\nMarcia Vogler (Charlotte)\nMiriam Adams (Hinesburg)\nNancy Leeman (Huntington)\nNancy Stone (Williston)\nNicole Gadouas (Swanton)\nOlin P (Middlebury)\nPatrick McAllister (Burlington )\nPedro Salas (Starksboro )\nPeter Aldrich (Essex Junction)\nRichard Crocker (Burlington )\nSandra Morris (East Middlebury)\nSandra VanVooren (East Hartford\, CT)\nSarah Rosedahl (North Hero)\nSteven Farrar (Richmond)\nTheo Chang Andreu (South Burlington)\nTodd Kiel (Bolton)\nTonya Whitney (Williston)\nTricia Knoll (Williston)\nViviane P (Richmond)\nWilliam Chaiken\n
