Garden and Gallery Book Conversation

Garden and Gallery Book Conversation

Join educators from the Arboretum and the Palmer Museum of Art for a Garden and Gallery Book Conversation. We will be discussing Underland: A Deep Time Journey by Robert Macfarlane, which explores themes that resonate with the Palmer’s special exhibition Mark Dion and Alexis Rockman: Journey to Nature’s Underworld. The special exhibition investigates our strained relationship with the environment through various pressing subjects, including failing ecosystems, invasive species, and the effects of climate change. It provides a striking visual counterpart to the rich narrative of Macfarlane’s Underland, a record of the author’s journeys in underground spaces, including the Paris Catacombs, the Karst Plateau, and a deeply buried laboratory where scientists work to detect dark matter. Copies of Underland will be available for sale at the museum store. Registration is free, though required.
