Brushwood Center, in partnership with Hyde Park Art Center and collector, artist, and environmental scientist Patric McCoy, presents an exhibition of artwork celebrating the different ways in which we connect with and are shaped by nature.
Connecting to our Common Ground is a special exhibition in honor of Brushwood Center's 2023 Smith Nature Symposium Awardee, Baratunde Thurston. In his PBS show, America Outdoors with Baratunde Thurston, Thurston travels the country to uncover our complex relationship with the outdoors. In this exhibition, we explore the ways that artists from different communities experience the natural world.
