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:Textile Curiosities
DESCRIPTION:Textile Curiosities\nStep into a world where art and nature converge in a display of faux-taxidermy moth and butterfly sculptures.

SUMMARY:Beekeeping 101
DESCRIPTION:Beekeeping 101\nLearn everything you need to know to get started in the exciting world of apiculture. \n\nOctober 16\, 6:00 pm – 7:30 pm\nCost: $30/ticket | $27/member\n\nThinking of becoming a beekeeper? This is the place to start! We’ll cover all of the basics you need to know before deciding to get your first hive\, plus everything you’ll want to know before you bring your bees home. \nThis lecture is designed to help beginners filter through all of the beekeeping information that is available out there. We remember being new to beekeeping and feeling overwhelmed by the sheer amount of advice that we had access to. Now\, after doing this for a while\, we’ve found what seems to work well here and we can offer locally relevant advice. \nWe’ll begin by talking about the practical questions to consider before starting up your apiary\, including costs\, time commitment\, necessary equipment\, and space requirements. We’ll spend lots of time getting to know the bees themselves\, as we believe it’s really important to understand who we’re trying to care for. From there\, we’ll talk about the things you can expect to see and do throughout your first year as a beekeeper. Our hope is that you’ll finish the program and be really excited to start your new apiary. And also that you’ll know what the word apiary means! Admission to the Botanical Gardens is included. \nRegistration closes on October 13.
