Join us for a reception for
Artist-in-Residence Margaret Dwyer and her solo exhibition
Common Threads: Land, History, Art
Billings Farm’s historic barn will be transformed by this solo exhibition of Artist-in-Residence Margaret Dwyer. Meet the artist and follow her visual exploration into the threads of history and conservation.
In this exhibition Dwyer weaves together images from the shared history and legacy of Billings Farm & Museum and Marsh-Billings-Rockefeller National Historical Park. Her images honor the conservation efforts and forward thinking of stewards George Perkins Marsh, Frederick and Julia Billings and their descendants.
The subject matter is inspired by these historic visionaries along with the staff and volunteers who continue to perpetuate their conservation mission, who learn from this beautiful land, and in turn educate and engage guests. The exhibition will feature recent works including art produced during her residency at Billings Farm & Museum, from June – October of 2022.
My watercolor paintings celebrate the breathtaking views, gardens, buildings, ponds, ferns, animals, trees, and people of this ‘place in the land.’
~ Margaret Dwyer
Light refreshments will be served. There is no fee to attend. RSVP in advance online.

This is a unique moment of growth in so many communities around the world. Woodstock, VT, with its history in conservationism and its reputation as one of the US’ most beautiful small towns, is an ideal place to forge conversations about creating peaceful communities, innovation in business / farming / technology and living a more sustainable life.

Located at Billings Farm & Museum, the day will include interactive displays, local food and spirits, music and more. The day will end with a community farmstyle dinner and the music of KeruBo, a Vermont-based singer/songwriter born in Kendu Bay, Kenya whose musical styling range from traditional African music to gospel, blues, and Afro-jazz.
TEDxHartlandHill Innovator’s Showcase on Saturday and Sunday is free to the public on the Woodstock Village Green. The Innovator’s Showcase is a large curated market of the “best in community” innovation throughout Vermont!
