Evening of Art & Nature Provides Rare Opportunity to Explore the Gardens Behind the Birdsong Bird Window

Published April 19, 2019

Birdsong Nature Center
2106 Meridian Road
Thomasville, GA 31792

Free with Birdsong Nature Center admission ($5.00 non-members; no admission fee w/annual membership).

Join us on Saturday, May 4th, 2019 for Illuminating Site: Birdsong Window Gardens, a performance installation by Callous Physical Theatre featuring 200 beautifully handcrafted lanterns and choreography inspired by the plant and bird life of our Nature Center. Joséphine A. Garibaldi and Paul Zmolek have gathered, pressed and dried local flora over the past year to create these unique artworks. Lanterns have also been created featuring images of feathers from birds that frequent Birdsong Nature Center. Performances by Bridget Close, Aaron Ellis, Calypso Haddad and Aigars Larionovs will be featured throughout the exhibit. This evening of art and nature provides a rare opportunity to explore the gardens behind the Birdsong Bird Window that are usually reserved just for feeding avian visitors.

Illuminating Site: Birdsong Window Gardens exhibits one night only, Saturday May 4, 2019 from 8:00-9:30 PM. Performances are ongoing and all are welcome to explore the exhibit at their leisure. The performance installation is $5 per person or free with the Birdsong Nature Center annual membership ($30/individual or $45/family).

Made possible in part by the generous support of Birdsong Nature Center and Florida State University’s Facility for Arts Research, School of Dance, College of Fine Arts and Council on Research and Creative Activity.
