SUMMARY:Mutation Invasion: Flesh-eating Flora
DESCRIPTION:Mutation Invasion: Flesh-eating Flora\n\nGet trapped by the haunting allure of carnivorous plants! \n\nSeptember 13\, 10:00 am – October 31\, 4:00 pm\nCost: Included with admission\n\nOh no!! The Botanical Gardens is under siege by an abundance of mutated\, flesh-eating plants! Carnivorous plants from the permanent collection such as venus flytraps\, sundews\, and pitcher plants as well as some other creepy plants will be on display along with a marvelous collection of bug-snatching sculptures created by local artist\, Melanie Fisher. Visitors will not only learn more about these shocking and interesting plants\, but they will be taken on an exciting\, and action-packed adventure with the help of a plot-twisting comic strip created by local Buffalo artist\, Nate Phillips. Through the exhibit\, follow the exciting vintage-inspired comic-book story of Mutation Invasion: Flesh-eating Flora featuring a series of large storyboard posters and get an up-close look at a variety of carnivorous plants. It shares the story of how our carnivorous plants have mutated into even bigger and scarier flesh-eating flora that put the Botanical Gardens’ horticulturists and pollinators at risk of being eaten alive!  \nLarger-than-life sculptures\, hungry plants\, and an adventure of a lifetime all wrapped into one exhibition! Visitors will also learn more about carnivorous plants and how convergent evolution is the reason behind the existence of these “natural-born killers.” \nMeet the artists! \nMelanie Fisher\, Sculpture artist \n \nMelanie Fisher grew up with three sisters in Rochester\, New York. She received her\nBachelors of Science in Ceramics from the State University of New York at Buffalo State\nCollege\, a Post Baccalaureate certificate at Indiana University Southeast and a Masters\nin Fine Arts degree in ceramics at Ohio University- also earning a certificate in Visual\nArts Management. She has shown in galleries in New York\, Indiana and Ohio as well as\nnon-traditional spaces including the Buffalo and Erie County Botanical Gardens in 2019.\nMelanie attended residencies in the US as well as Beijing\, China and Ottawa\, Canada.\nShe currently resides in Illinois where she teaches foundational and ceramic courses at\nthe university level as well as community classes in ceramics. When she is not teaching\,\nshe works on her art practice in her glamorous basement studio! \nMelanie Fisher\nwww.melaniefisherclay.com\nInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/melaniefisher__/ \nNate Phillips\, Comic artist \n \nNate Phillips is a rochester transPlant living in Buffalo! He couldn’t decide on a single medium so he is a freelance artist with his wet\, webbed little flippers in all sorts of pockets of art\, including (but not limited to) sculpting\, painting\, illustration\, printmaking\, animation\, woodcarving\, graphic novels\, and fiber arts when he’s feeling saucy. No matter what medium though\, they all share the commonality of his deep love and fascination with the natural world. \n“I am chronically unserious and clinically compelled to try and manifest the funny little ideas that bubble up to the surface from within the murk inside my skull.”  \nNate Phillips\nhttps://www.phillipsart.net/\nInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/_nattousan_

SUMMARY:Natural Garden Medicine Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Natural Garden Medicine Workshop\n\nOctober 3\, 6:00 pm – 7:00 pm\nCost: $45/ticket | $40.50/member\n\nThere is medicine growing all around us! From the beginning of time\, humans have relied on nature to keep us healthy\, but somewhere along the way we lost touch with the medicine that plants can provide. From herbal teas to salves and tinctures\, there are a variety of ways that we can harness the power of plants to create herbal remedies right at home. In this hands-on session\, we’ll use easy-to-grow medicinal herbs and combine them with honey and beeswax to create simple natural remedies. Each participant will leave with the remedies they create in class\, and a feeling of empowerment to grow and create their own apothecary items at home. Registration closes on September 30. \n  \nMeet your instructor\, Erin Masterson Holko! \n \nErin is a Buffalo area native. She grew up in East Aurora\, working in the family garden center alongside her\ndad and brothers. After attending Mount Mercy Academy in South Buffalo\, she studied something\ncompletely non-garden related at the University of Rochester. After graduating\, she moved to San Diego\,\nCA where she did use her degree in Russian language for several years. After realizing that she much\npreferred being outdoors and playing with plants and animals\, Erin found herself back in the nursery\nindustry. Her city home garden grew to include not just fruits and vegetables\, but chickens and eventually\nhoneybees. The more she learned about honeybees\, the more the love for them grew. This passion turned\ninto a retail beekeeping supply store in San DIego where Erin taught others about urban beekeeping.\nIn 2016\, Erin moved back to the Buffalo area\, along with her husband and two sons. Today she lives in\nWest Falls with her family\, a pack of golden retrievers\, alpacas\, donkeys\, goats\, chickens\, and of course\nhoneybees. She works with her dad and her brother at Masterson’s Garden Center in East Aurora\, where\nshe oversees green goods operations as well as many other areas of the business. In addition\, she owns\nand operates Beekeeper’s Garden Apothecary\, growing and creating herbal remedies utilizing plants and\nproducts sourced from the beehive

SUMMARY:Coral Moons w/ Tuesday Nite
DESCRIPTION:Coral Moons w/ Tuesday Nite\nCoral Moons\nCoral Moons is an indie pop band that formed on the shores of Boston and recently relocated to the woods of Upstate New York. If they’re not tending to their gardens\, taking film photos with vintage cameras\, or drinking homemade wine by the fire\, they’re touring nationally and hitting up major music festivals on the way. \nThe solitude and stillness of the cabin has had an immersive impact on lead singer and songwriter\, Carly Kraft (she/her). She describes a week at their home studio in the woods\, caring for her chickens\, as a healing experience. Seeking refuge to heal old wounds\, moving to the countryside has forced her to slow down and reclaim what was always hers — her songs.
