Greenhouse & Cabinet of Future Fossils Opening at the APS Museum Jefferson Garden

Jenny Sabin Studio

Dear Friends and Colleagues,

Join us for the opening of the Greenhouse and Cabinet of Future Fossils by Jenny E. Sabin

Part of the Greenhouse Projects: Five Takes on an Exhibition

Friday, September 9, 7:00 - 8:30pm

The American Philosophical Society Museum invited five Philadelphians - artist and architectural designer Jenny Sabin, composer Kyle Bartlett, actor Aaron Cromie, radio producer Lari Robling, and historian Erin McLeary - to create innovative programs that put a contemporary spin on issues and ideas presented in the current exhibition Of Elephants & Roses. The result is five projects that use new technology and current ideas to explore the science and art of post-revolutionary French natural history and relate it to issues today.

Grand Opening Reception

Friday, September 9, 7 - 8:30 p.m.
