Fall Birding at Scofieldtown Park

Join SM&NC Visitor Services Manager and expert birder, Brian O’Toole, on a fall walk to explore this great local birding area.

The Art of Work: Painting Labor in Nineteenth-Century Denmark

One hundred and fifty years ago a group of French artists staged their first independent exhibition in Paris and a radical movement called Impressionism was born.
