Exhibit Closing Symposium & OMI/Excelsior Living Library Garden Tour

Current A.L.L. interns and staff at the exhibit opening. Connecting the history of A.L.L. with the present and the future.

Celebrate the closing weekend of Bonnie Ora Sherk: Life Frames Since 1970 with a symposium featuring discussions surrounding Sherk’s relationship to landscape, expanding forms, pedagogy, artist-led spaces, and communities around The Farm. Presenters include A.L.L. Executive Director China Bushell and Board President Robert Croonquist. The event culminates with a reception launching the publication for the exhibition.

Thank you to all who have joined us at the exhibit and other events. It has been heartwarming to reconnect with so many A Living Library (A.L.L.) friends and community partners, including those who had been involved throughout the eras. The outpouring of interest and support has been exciting and affirming. Hope to see you at the Symposium!
