Green Briar Nature Center & Jam Kitchen Photography Exhibit at Green Briar Nature Center The first in a series of new gallery exhibits at the Thornton W. Burgess Society's Green Briar Nature Center opens on January 11 and will run through March 30. "Views of Sandwich" features the black & white photographs of Mark Wiklund, a resident of Sandwich. Wiklund states that he has always chosen black & white photography over color because it steps beyond the obvious colors of the every day and opens up a world filled with wonders of form and line and light. His photographs are the places that most people in the area know well. This exhibit may be viewed Tuesday through Saturday from 10am to 4pm. Now that classes are being held in the new Education Center, additional space has become available in the old Green Briar building with two separate gallery areas for exhibitions. Below is the tentative schedule of exhibits planned for 2008.
April 25—August 3 Sandwich’s Renaissance Man: The Art and Crafts of Alvin White July 6—September 28 The Cutting Edge: Scissors Cuttings of Carolyn Wiedman August 8—October 19 Burgess Animals and Cady Art October 10—January 5 Game Farm Glimpses: The Photography of Quentin Molyn October 26—January 18 Birds, More Birds and A Bunny or Two: Bird Specimens and the Paintings of Aleta Steward
