September 3, 2012                                                       last day to view BEEyond, Noon to 4:00 pm

BEEyond examines the majesty of the honeybee through the lens of photographer Rose-Lynn Fisher, who used the power of the electron microscope to explore the intricate details of this magnificent insect. Fisher is the author of the book “BEE,” which was the third-place winner in the International Photography Awards and was recently featured on NPR. While at the Everhart, the images are supplemented by art, artifacts, beekeeping objects, and natural science items – both from the collection and on loan – which illustrate the role of the honey bee in science, culture, and art. Financial assistance for this exhibit is provided by Gertrude Hawk Chocolates, Inc. For more information please call 570-346-7186 or email general.information@everhart-museum.org.

September 28, 2012                                                   new exhibit Sightlines opens at Noon

Sightlines is a contemporary art quilt installation in which fourteen artists were invited to create an installation of artworks featuring a sightline linking all the artwork in the exhibit. Each artist chose her own themes and created five to eight artworks, including four 8×8″ linking pieces, covering a ten foot wide space. Perhaps the required continuous line provided provocation, both conscious and unconscious, to the artists to focus on the interaction of time, personal history, and memory. The artists explore themes such as consumerism, contemplation, randomness, emotion, triumph, tragedy, and making connections. The exhibit is on loan from SAQA (Studio Art Quilt Association) and marks the second time that the Everhart Museum has worked with this group of artists. Financial assistance for this exhibit iss provided by Gertrude Hawk Chocolates, Inc. For more information please call 570-346-7186 or email general.information@everhart-museum.org.
