SUMMARY:Attract Birds to your Yard-tips & tricks with master gardener Fran Raleigh
DESCRIPTION:Bring the Cape’s most beautiful\, fascinating — and sometimes dramatic –birds to your own back yard with tips and tricks from master gardener Fran Raleigh at the Cape Cod Museum of Natural History on Sunday\, March 1 at 1:00pm\, 2026. \nThe botanist\, ecologist and birder will join host Janice Donovan\, manager of the historic Shirley G Cross Wildflower Garden\, for a presentation on native plants that can attract year-round and migrating birds. Fran will also explain how helping local birdlife can reduce your own garden chores\, including having to water less\, and maintain local ecosystems. \nFran Raleigh grew up watching birds and nature in her Northern VA neighborhood. She began getting to know wild plants while earning her BS in Biology at Marietta College in OH\, and continued botanizing during grad school at SUNY-ESF in Syracuse\, where she earned MS and PhD degrees in Plant Science. A long-time visitor to Cape Cod\, she moved here permanently on her retirement. \nGardening for Life is an annual series at the Cape Cod Museum of Natural History that brings experts across a range of fields to speak to hobbyists and professionals. Upcoming topics include spring preparation and the secret world of fireflies. It honors the historic Shirley G. Cross Wildflower Garden at the Green Briar Nature Center. \nPLUS\, at every event we’ll be hosting a bake sale filled with delicious treats\, with proceeds going to support the incredible work of Brewster Pollinators.

SUMMARY:Local Artist Talk with Joy Barry
DESCRIPTION:The Landscapes of Hiraeth\nLocal Artist Talk with Joy Barry\nFriday\, March 6\, 2026 at 11:00 a.m.\nIn-person in Community Rooms AB\nIn this artist talk\, local encaustic painter Joy Barry shares the inspiration behind her ongoing series\, The Landscapes of Hiraeth. \nRooted in the untranslatable Welsh word hiraeth – a deep longing for home\, for place\, or for what has been lost – the series explores themes of memory\, migration and ancestral ties to the land. \nUsing molten beeswax\, damar resin\, natural pigments and mixed media\, Barry layers light\, texture\, and translucency to evoke\nboth the beauty and the grief embedded in landscapes shaped by history. She will discuss her creative process\, the historical narratives that inform the work\, and the ways in which encaustic itself embodies the tension between permanence and fragility. \nRSVP to: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeysClWgeRiXsNV2ycDnYLutLZBSLUIyaMdoUF5Q0z9fOvmJQ/viewform
