SUMMARY:Concord Collects
DESCRIPTION:Concord Collects featured twenty remarkable works of art from four Concord private collections being displayed together for the first time. These collections have been formed thoughtfully over decades by an equally remarkable group of collectors whose broad-ranging interests come into sharp focus with each selection made. \n  \nAs a complement to this exhibition in the Wallace Kane Gallery\, an adjacent gallery–the Gross Family Gallery–showcased some of the most outstanding clocks\, furniture\, needlework\, silver\, and other items that the Concord Museum has collected in the recent past\, including in many instances the finest known examples of each of those media. \n  \nConcord Collects was the first exhibition presented in the Museum following the construction of the Anna and Neil Rasmussen Education Center and renovations to the Gund and Little buildings. \n

SUMMARY:Monument Maker: Family Trees Program
DESCRIPTION:Know what you love. Make what you love.  Join author Linda Sweeney and illustrator Shawn Fields in a program about the life and artwork of Concord-sculptor Daniel Chester French.  In the new award-winning book\, Monument Maker\, a young Daniel Chester French finds a passion and talent for making sculptures.  This love only grows over the years and culminates in his largest artistic endeavor – The Lincoln Memorial. \nThis family-oriented talk will include discussions with the audience\, close-looking activities\, and at the end of the program\, participants will sculpt their own masterpiece of what they love to bring home.  Appropriate for all ages. \n \nLinda Sweeney is a writer and educator who began writing this book while living in Daniel Chester French’s former studio in Concord\, Massachusetts. Her picture books for children include Where the Wind Blows and she is also the author of The Systems Thinking Playbook and other books to help people of all ages see and understand complex systems. \nShawn Fields is an artist best known for his narrative oil paintings. He lives with his wife\, three children\, and their dog Yogi in a small rural town in western Massachusetts. In the winter they love to hang around the woodstove after walking in the snow. In the summer their favorite thing to do is to get hot and sweaty working and playing\, then jump in the river that runs past their house. \nMonument Maker will be available for purchase and signing by the author and illustrator in partnership with the Concord Bookshop. \nWith Museum Admission.
