Opening Reception for Rising Seas in Bristol County: An Artist’s View

Megathlin created her photo-based artworks to raise people’s awareness of what could come to be and to spur dialogue as we begin to envision a future in a vastly different littoral zone. Sweet treats and bubbly beverages will be served.

The reception is open to the public. Admission to the house and grounds can be purchased in The Shop.
