Library news
The Library seeks a local artist to create a research-based work connected to the Library collections or locations. The fellowship provides full access to Library resources, as well as a $2,000 award and exhibition.
Tracing a transatlantic story from the English Fens to the Indigenous homelands of the Virginia Chesapeake, this exhibition unravels how the logic of improvement, codified in law and made visible through environmental interventions, redefined belonging and access to land. On view until June 4, 2027.
