“A NATURALIST’S SOJOURN IN ALABAMA” Made possible by Alabama Audubon

PRINTS BY PHILIP HENRY GOSSE
On display: August 5 – October 29, 2022

Take a journey back in time to 1830s Alabama with English naturalist Philip Henry Gosse, and imagine a world before field guides or widespread knowledge of our state’s beautiful flora and fauna. In his intricate, hand-painted illustrations of moths, butterflies, and various other insects, Gosse captured the essence of many of our most beloved native plants and insects.

“BODIES OF WORK”

WORKS BY PINKY BASS, CAROLYN DEMERITT, & SONJA LANGFORD
On display: July 1 – August 27, 2022

“We offer visual interpretations of individual experiences, and we are connected as women because of them. We, women, know our stories,” explains Bass. “It is through this exhibition that we hope to offer a glimmer of the universal collective unconscious.”
