Visiting Artist Series: Roberta March

  • The Children's Museum & Theatre of Maine 250 Thompson's Point Road Portland, ME 04102 (map)

Join Visiting Artist Roberta March for a “pop-up” studio in the Makerspace! Use markers and art supplies to create designs, patterns and pictures on individual wood pieces. These individually decorated pieces are then contributed to a communal, large-scale wooden butterfly mosaic. The image of the butterfly was chosen for this project because it is a species endangered and impacted by climate change, but is also a symbol of hope and change. Just as caterpillars transform into butterflies, so can we all work together to make positive changes for the earth. The final mosaic titled “Butterfly-Migration Pattern” will be viewable on the Museum & Theatre website.  

In addition to generous funding of the Lunder Arts & Culture Gallery by The Lunder Foundation, the Visiting Artist Series is funded by a grant from the National Endowment for the Arts.
