What's Going On Here? Liminal Spaces Where Art and Nature Intersect

"What's Going On Here? Liminal Spaces Where Art and Nature Intersect" featuring work by Linda Booth Sweeney, Linda Ziemba &amp; Jamie Collins. Opening Reception: June 10, 3 - 5 PM (<a href="https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSc2vivRk56gnqKqiTmcyvKM-u7l8_Dpv75rS3_DGt_8Xb6klA/viewform?usp=dialog">RSVP</a> appreciated) | Exhibition Dates: May 29 - June 28, 2026 Join us for light refreshments starting at 3 PM and an Artists' Talk at 3:30 PM. Families and children welcome. This event is free and open to all.&nbsp; What’s Going On Here? is a three-part, immersive installation that transforms The Umbrella Arts Center into a living, breathing work of art—one that draws its energy from liminal spaces: vernal pools, backyard edges, cracks in city sidewalks… places where something unexpected is always about to happen. Through habitable sculpture, photography, sound, and story, the lawn and the Wedge Gallery become a sequence of spatial, visual and sensory encounters that invite visitors to enter, pass through, and dwell, not just observe. Linda Ziemba composes space through Habitable Sculpture such as L' Arc, creating environments where ideas spark, stories surface, connections form, and conversations carry beyond the moment. Linda Booth Sweeney, a systems designer and writer, brings the narrative spine of The Noisy Puddle, a children’s story rooted in wonder, interdependence, and the surprising richness of small worlds. Jamie Collins, a graphic designer and photographer, captures vivid portraits of macro life and uses photography in his exhibit Patio Life as a way to ponder the natural world, asking questions such as: “Why is the wasp eating the wood chair?” Learn more and RSVP at <a href="http://theumbrellaarts.org/whats-going-here?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTAAYnJpZBExTVJGamFZUWdJcUd2Y1RBRXNydGMGYXBwX2lkEDIyMjAzOTE3ODgyMDA4OTIAAR4OgKZZITtrEdzRMhKXG0Bu3otPM1fDDLfAgIluqx1cVowX0hNBXwwWqX1VSw_aem_1PonACCw3FBJORuOdjrJhw">TheUmbrellaArts.org/whats-going-here</a>
