Whale Discovery Day

1:30 PM - 4:00 PM Sunday, April 2, 2017

Location:
Gallery 263 | 263 Pearl Street Cambridge, MA United

Gallery 263 is pleased to present Listen to the Whales, a Curatorial Proposal Series exhibition that invites visitors to decode the language of the whales. Using auditory and visual elements, Ann Barrett and William Chambers create a meditation on whales as metaphors for the need to preserve the diversity of life on our planet. Imagining equal interspecies exchange and a scenario of understanding, Barrett and Chambers implore us to listen and respond.

Drop in for a series of free activities for the whole family…

2:00pm – Parade: Form a pod of whales and “swim” around the neighborhood with a life-size fabric Humpback whale!

2:30pm – Stories and Art Making: Colleen Pearce, Art teacher and MassArt MFA, will join Ann and William to share intimate stories about whales. Then, we’ll use crayon resist and watercolors to make art inspired by the story and our imaginations.

3:30pm – Meditation: Lay back and relax to the soothing sights and sounds of whales.
