I am curating this exhibition in my position as Art Program Manager at The Schuylkill Center for Environmental Education.

The nine artists that I selected use printmaking, drawing, painting, digital media, installation art, and book arts to explore the realities and mysteries of birds. Artists in the exhibition explore themes of migration, flocking, and nesting, as well as presenting imagery relating to endangered and extinct species.
