Leapin’ Leprechauns Park Hunt @ Darree Fields
Mar 1 @ 8:00 am – Mar 12 @ 5:30 pm

It appears we have a mischievous leprechaun working out at the Dublin Community Recreation Center in preparation for the St. Patrick’s Day Reverse Parade on Saturday, March 13!

The inside scoop is that he is planning to run around Darree Fields to leave a trail of fun St. Patrick’s Day signs throughout the park.

 

Do you have the luck of the Irish on your side to catch Dublin’s mischievous leprechaun?

If you are up for the challenge here is what you need to do:

  • Register for the Leapin’ Leprechauns Park Hunt (no charge to participate!)
  • From March 1-12, visit the park anytime during operating hours and find all the St. Patrick’s Day signage.
  • Think you found all the signs? Submit your guess for the number of signs our mischievous leprechaun left behind. All information provided is optional and will enter you for a chance to win an AMAZING St. Patrick’s Day prize! (The winner will be notified by Monday, March 15.)

The Art of Trees  @ Buchwald-Wright Gallery & Gund Gallery
Mar 6 @ 9:00 am – 5:00 pm

January 22–April 11, 2021
Buchwald-Wright Gallery, Gund Gallery

The Art of Trees reveals the many resonances, forms, and relationships of trees. Exploring themes of restoration and destruction, community and isolation, location and identity, and fragile temporalities, the artists featured in the exhibition experiment with a range of mediums, and even use trees as creative collaborators to express our essential and inseparable bond with these guardians of the earth. The Art of Trees invites an interdisciplinary dialogue about personal, local, and global relationships to the environment, while simultaneously drawing attention to interactions between trees themselves, the communities they form, and their resilience despite human interference.

Featuring: Nearby Voices

Nearby Voices bridges the gap between global and local environmental concerns by engaging with the art and voices of local community members. This special section of The Art of Trees exhibition offers artistic reflections on the local landscape as a shared point of witness and imagines trees as archives of commonly held stories and experiences that branch across generations of a community.

The Art of Trees is curated by a committee of Gund Associates, Kenyon faculty, and Gund Gallery staff who worked together in a collaborative, multi-year process to bring this project to life.
