For Earth Day, we are putting the ART into eARTh!

If you've been to Yew Dell in the past year, you've probably seen several lace art pieces creatively placed throughout the gardens. But did you know that these works of art are made from invasive vines pulled from our arboretum? On Earth Day, fiber artist and longtime Yew Dell volunteer, Debby Levine, will be adding several new pieces to create an entire Lace Art Installation. Debby will also be on hand doing demonstrations and talking about the process involved in making them! So come celebrate art born out of an act of kindness towards our gardens and arboretum. A perfect way to honor Earth Day!

Earth Day Lace Art Installation - Thursday, April 22nd. Artist, Debby Levine, will be on site doing demonstrations from 10:30 am-2:30 pm. The installation will be up until the end of July.
