Dear Sarah and Sarah,
I am not sure which of you is the Sarah I want to contact, so please excuse
me if you are not the right one!
Your name was given to me by Ibit Getchell as a contact person for the
SEEDS program. I am writing to see if you, or a member of SEEDS, might be
available to come with a display or present an activity for the Museum's
Annual Community Family Day. Entitled "Ravens, Trees, and Bumblebees,"
Family Day is in 2 weeks on Saturday, November 6, from 11 am - 4 pm.
Each year the theme of Family Day is drawn from a current exhibition and
this year we have four exhibitions all revolving around the theme of nature
including "Bernd Heinrich: The Naturalist as Artist," "Fungi, Unicorns, and
Beached Whales: The Artist as Naturalist" and Japanese landscape prints and
scholars' rocks from China. As you can see, the exhibitions cover a lot of
ground, so there are lots of topics -- bees, insects, trees -- that would
connect would these exhibitions.
The audience for Family Day is children and their parents in the community
and we have a variety of art activities and programs going on. The
students who help us out at Family Day love it -- it is lots of fun to work
with the kids.
If you could get in touch with me, I'd be happy to tell you more about it
and to answer any questions you may have. It would be great if SEEDS could
participate at Family Day. My home phone is 802-849-6076, if that is
easier for you.
Hope to hear from you soon,
Chris Fearon
