SUMMARY:Melissa Burley: The Fragility of Things - Public Reception
DESCRIPTION:* This exhibition runs May 23–Jun. 21\, with a public reception on Fri.\, Jun. 12. * \n\n\n\n“We inhabit a time when things have become more fragile and urgently in need of delicate tending.”– William E. Connolly \n\n\n\nIn The Fragility of Things\, Burley reflects on vulnerability in an era shaped by uncertainty – environmental\, political\, and deeply personal. Drawing on natural forms like eggs and seeds\, her work explores fragility not as weakness\, but as a space where resilience and quiet strength can emerge\, inviting viewers to consider their own balance between growth and breaking.

SUMMARY:Remembering We the People: Race and Resistance in Civil War Maryland
DESCRIPTION:In recognition of America turning 250\, we are launching a self-guided option to Surratt Historic Site & Museum titled Remembering We the People: Race and Resistance in Civil War Maryland. In a nation whose founders declared “all men are created equal” while only granting freedom to a select few\, this exhibit seeks to acknowledge the full history of the site and tell the stories of those who forcibly lived and labored here. We invite you to explore the past\, the present\, and the unfinished revolution whose ideals our nation still seeks to embody.
