SUMMARY:Alive with Birds: William Brewster in Concord
DESCRIPTION:The Concord Museum is collaborating with Mass Audubon to present a special exhibition\, Alive with Birds: William Brewster in Concord\, open March 4\, 2022. William Brewster (1851-1919) was Mass Audubon’s first President. He dedicated over thirty years of his life to the study of birds in Concord at his property\, which he called October Farm. Drawn to Concord for its natural beauty and abundant bird life\, Brewster made October Farm into an experimental field laboratory and documented its wildlife for scientific study and public enlightenment. His rich observations and analysis of the local landscape included a concern for environmental changes caused by humans. Brewster was one of the country’s earliest advocates for the protection of birds and the conservation of their habitats. In 2019\, Mass Audubon received a 143-acre parcel of land which was once part of October Farm\, which has been renamed Brewster’s Woods Wildlife Sanctuary.  \n  \nThis exhibition explores William Brewster’s life and legacy in Concord\, featuring paintings and sculpture from the Museum of American Bird Art and ornithological artifacts from the Concord Museum\, Harvard’s Museum of Comparative Zoology\, and the Chesterwood Archives at Williams College. \n  \n Image: Louis Agassiz Fuertes (1874-1927)\, Bird Chart Number Four\, 1916\, Watercolor on paper\, Mass Audubon Collection\, 1916 \n  \n \n

SUMMARY:The Lincoln Memorial Illustrated
DESCRIPTION:Last Chance: Closing Day is Sunday\, February 26\n“‘The Lincoln Memorial Illustrated\,’ at the Concord Museum\, observes the centennial of an American temple of democracy.” — Boston Globe\nOne of the most revered and visited sites in Washington\, D.C. and in the nation\, the Lincoln Memorial is now a century old. Dedicated on May 30\, 1922\, it was designed by architect Henry Bacon and Concord sculptor Daniel Chester French\, and it has served as a gathering place for some of the most significant and symbolic events of the past one hundred years.

The exhibition features works by numerous artists from the past century\, including Norman Rockwell\, Daniel Chester French\, Henry Bacon\, Tony Bennett\, Istvan Banyai\, and others. \n  \n \n  \nThe Lincoln Memorial Illustrated is a collaboration of the Norman Rockwell Museum and Chesterwood.
