Join Charlie Adams and mural artists of Commonwealth Murals to paint a new 120-foot, nature-inspired mural in our historical grain bunker, now called The Landing, which promises to be a place for quiet reflection, to sit and refuel, and for rest.
This spring, thanks to a planning grant from the Vermont Arts Council, we will be installing our first major art installation that depicts and inspires connection with place. Charlie Adams, a Vermont and Maine-based artist with Abenaki heritage, who draws deeply from the natural world for inspiration- from our relations all around us. Charlie has direct connection to Retreat Farm, too; their great-grandfather, Merrill Shelter, was once a herdsman and Farm Manager here, and he called our yellow farmhouse home!
