The Language of Water 

Exhibition On View: May 7 - June 4

For centuries, water has defined boundaries, brought people together or split them apart. We build cities along rivers and lakes, build damns to generate power, and ship materials across oceans and rivers.

In this exhibition, we invite you to explore water in any way that feels meaningful to you: as a subject, a material, a setting, or an idea. Consider its movement and rhythm, nature that lives on or around coastlines and lakes, and how bodies of water like oceans and rivers can wash things away or help new life grow. Water changes what it touches—and is constantly changing itself.
