December Show + For-Ever-Green Opening Success!

We had a great time last Saturday evening, going all out with hot apple cider to a merry bonfire. Thank you all for coming out to see the December Show and the For-Ever-Green in its full night time glory. Candles lit along the edge of the garden, marshmallows toasted in the fire, and roaring crowds warmed up to the sip of extra "butter" in our cider.
Watch out for the invitation of our closing reception in January! Let's continue the festivities well into the new year.

And on that note, feel free to wander into Whitespace garden in the weekend evenings! Whitespace will keep the lights on for Thursday, Friday, and Saturday nights until 9pm until the show ends January 10th. Enjoy!

December Show + For-ever-green, this outside exhibition gleefully combines the popular green movement with curious evergreen alternatives.

1) Green Art - Exterior eco-friendly installations that connect art with the escalating green movement. Some artists have chosen to focus on conceptual ideas about the environment and current environmental issues, sustainability, or human interaction with nature while others have produced eco-friendly works from recycled and/or repurposed materials.

2) Tree Art ("Little Hatchet's Eco-Lot") - Basically the antithesis of Big John's Tree Lot, we have invited creative interpretations of eco-friendly Christmas trees for our outdoor, "sustainable tree lot"(Susan's driveway!)

Some of the participating artists include: Robin Brasington, Sean Caffrey, Rebecca DesMarais, Barrett Feldman, Angus Gallaway, Julia Hill, George Long, Scot Montgomery, Patricia Nelson, Justine Rubin, Mario Schambon, John Trefrey, Tracy Wagner, Xenia Zed.
