Lunchtime Walk

Lunchtime walks are an excellent opportunity to exercise, explore nature, meet new friends, and get to know parks in your backyard. Walking has many health benefits; join this healthy one-hour lunchtime walk at Smithville Park. We will meet outside the Visitors Center and leave at noon. Please wear comfortable walking/hiking shoes, bring water, and let's get moving! The route is approximately 2.5 miles with some elevation and stairs. Feel free to walk at your own pace.

John Russo Jr.: Recycled Reimagined Exhibit

This exhibit is fabricated from the creative mind of Brooklyn-based artist, John Russo. He is a retired window and store display artist and has been making things using only recycled materials, including but not limited to everyday items and objects. These intricate artworks can range in height from a couple of inches to a few feet. Among the works he has created, you will see one-of-a-kind robot-like figures, garden art, clocks, and even steampunk-inspired pieces.

Out of the Darkness & Into the Light: Music Photography Collective Exhibit

June 22 – August 26. Reception: July 8, 5-7 pm Lights dim, and the audience erupts with a deafening roar as the band walks out of fog and darkness. The crowd thrusts forward, and the energy rises like a storm surge, bodies lift into the air and crash down in front of the stage. Poised in the center of all the madness is a photographer capturing the split-second world that lives within the flicker of light and shadow. This exhibit will allow you to glimpse through the lens of a select few that brave the chaos in the crowd.  

The Art of Pattie Ingenbrandt Exhibit

Focusing primarily on portraiture, Pattie chooses subjects that captivate her in some manner or strike an emotional feeling. Painting her beloved Labrador, Penny, was an inspiration and a catalyst for her many commissioned canine portraits. Working in oils with a limited palette and layers of glazing , she captures the eyes of her subjects, as they tell the real story. Reception: June 23, 5-7 pm Gallery Hours: Thursday-Saturday, 10:00 AM - 4:00 PM, Sunday: 12:00 - 4:00 PM
