A los artistas que se identifican como mujeres o no binarios se les preguntó cómo veían el tema de la naturaleza frente a la crianza. Este debate se centra en los genes y el entorno\, y ambos factores influyen en el bienestar mental y físico\, a la vez que moldean la personalidad. Esta exposición presenta diversos puntos de vista sobre la compleja interacción entre naturaleza y crianza. Algunas obras ahondan en el poderoso impacto de la genética\, examinando cómo los rasgos heredados y las tendencias biológicas pueden moldear la trayectoria de una persona. Otras se centran en la crianza\, subrayando la importancia de la educación\, las experiencias vitales y el entorno a la hora de definir el sentido de uno mismo. \nEl jurado seleccionó a cinco artistas para la exposición Naturaleza/Naturaleza: Anne Bradford Spencer\, Deborah Yaffe\, Shelsy Rodiguez\, Camille Roos y River Nation. El museo recibió tantas propuestas maravillosas que se incluirán más artistas como menciones honoríficas. Estos talentos se adentran en diversos medios\, desde la fotografía a la escultura\, y exponen sus distintivas obras de arte en nuestra galería para que todo el mundo pueda apreciarlas\, reunirse y explorar el tema de este año.

SUMMARY:Rescuing Richardson's Station: Holyoke's 1885 Train Depot\, with Will Melton
DESCRIPTION:Considered by many to be the greatest American architect of the 19th century\, Henry Hobson Richardson and his firm were commissioned to design more than two dozen railroad stations\, many along the east-west line of the Boston & Albany Railroad. Only one\, his 1885 Holyoke Passenger Station\, was completed in his lifetime on the north-south line between New York and Montreal (the Connecticut River Railroad). When rail passenger service to Holyoke was abandoned nearly 80 years later\, the station was altered into automobile parts and machine shops. \nIt sat empty for decades until local businessman David White bought the building in 2021\, “tired of listening to people complain ‘Someone should fix it before it falls down.'” His takeout restaurant and Choo Choo’s Ice Cream shop will open on the site this Spring. Dave’s friend Will Melton will tell the story of Richardson and this architectural commission. \nThis is Will Melton’s third history talk for Holyoke Public Library. He retired in 2015 after four decades in university and museum fund raising to devote time to gardening\, his mandolin ensemble\, and history studies and writing. Liberty’s War\, An Engineer’s Memoir of the Merchant Marine 1942-45\, which he published in 2017\, is available from U.S. Naval Institute Press\, our library\, and the C/W MARS library consortium.
