Behind the Scenes Vault Tour at Mass Audubon
Join museum director Amy Montague and curatorial volunteer Julianne
Mehegan to explore the photography in Mass Audubon’s art collection. A
wide range of work will be shown, including the glass plate negatives of
William Brewster (c. 1895) and Edwin Hale Lincoln’s exceedingly rare
platinum prints of American orchids (1931). We’ll also look at the work
of some contemporary photographers, including Dorothy Monnelly’s
large-format silver gelatin landscapes of the Great Marsh, Joseph
Scheer’s 4-foot-long digital images of moths, and the wildlife
photography of Brian Skerry, Chris Linder and Kevin Schafer.
Participants are limited to 12, so you will have the opportunity to see
the art up-close, ask questions, and hear stories about the
photographers and how their works came to the collection. REGISTRATION REQUIRED $15 Mass Audubon Members/$18 non-members. Visit www.massaudubon.org/maba for registration or call 781-821-8853.
