Faces of Macricostas Meadow


The exhibition will be open from 2 P.M. to 5 P.M. over two weekends: October 7, 8, 9, 13, 14 and 15 and on October 12 from 11 A.M. to 1 P.M. There will be an informal reception at the Isaac Camp Farmhouse at 2 P.M. on October 7th. (The October 12 date will celebrate the opening of the Interpretive Walkway by the Washington Garden Club.)

Inspired by the joy of composing images at this remarkable preserve, the photographers hope to convey its many moods. Their photos will be displayed in and next to the house that has overlooked the property for more than 250 years. The quiet of the unrestored house is accompaniment to the lazy mood that often characterizes Macricostas Meadow. Both have something of eternity about them now, busy as they once were. The group believes that when you look closely they are busy still.

The Isaac Camp House and the Macricostas Preserve are located at 124 Christian Street, Washington, Connecticut, off of Route 202. Signs on Rt. 202 will point the way.

View the exhibition, see inside the unrestored Isaac Camp Farmhouse and be inspired by a walk in Macricostas Meadow.

Photographs will be for sale. A portion of the proceeds will benefit the Steep Rock Association

I hope this is but the first of many more wonderful posts to come! I wish you all well with this exhibition. I just wish I could be there, so someone will have to take pics of the event for the rest of us to see!
