TREE WHISPERS 8.5 x 11
Experience the exhibit and upcoming events at The Dawes Arboretum.
Treewhispers is an ongoing international collaboration awakening our heartfelt connection to trees. The art installation features paper rounds that hang from ceiling to floor, reminiscent of trees. Each round highlights its maker’s connection to trees with stories, poetry, and art. We invite you to experience this forest of inspiration and explore your connection to trees.
