Community Paint Party at Retreat Farm

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!

Painting activities available for participants of all ages and skill levels. All are welcome and registration is required.

Location: Food Center
