Berkshire Grows pop-up exhibition

Berkshire Grown and MOSAIC EventSpace present The Artful Farmer, a pop-up exhibition at MOSAIC EventSpace, 49 Main Street, North Adams, on April 3 and 4. A reception will be held during the First Fridays celebration on April 3 from 5PM-8PM. Additional gallery hours for the pop-up exhibit will be 11AM-4PM on Friday, April 3 and Saturday, April 4.
The Artful Farmer explores non-farming aspects of farmers’ lives and celebrates their imaginations, interests, passions and creativity. The exhibit features creative expressions that bring respite, joy, humor and beauty to one of the most resourceful and challenging ways of life—that of a farmer.
Farmers will share what they make in spare moments, in winter, or on the fringes of their busy seasons, as well as pursuits they explored before farming and hope to get back to someday. The exhibit will feature a wide-ranging display of work including painting, sculpture, ceramics, woodworking, photography and collected objects, crafts, metal work, textiles, tools and more.
Farmers featured in The Artful Farmer are from farms in the northern Berkshire area including: Big Foot Farm, Caretaker Farm, Cricket Creek Farm, East Mountain Farm, Fahey Family Honey Farm, Forgotten Pines Farm, Full Well Farm, Ioka Valley Farm, Larry Valley Farm, Many Forks Farm, Peace Valley Farm, Starry Ridge Farm and Tanner Farm.
Farmers will be present at the reception on April 3, 5PM-8PM at MOSAIC, to greet the public and engage in lively conversation. Light refreshments will be available. Free and open to the public.
