TRI-STATE BOTANICAL ARTISTS OF
NEW YORK BOTANICAL GARDEN

AUGUST 29, 2018 – OCTOBER 27, 2018
RECEPTION: TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 25, 2018 5:30-7:30

The Tri-State Botanical Artists of New York Botanical Garden are pleased to present, highly detailed, botanically accurate renderings of plants, fungi and pollinators, in an array of media. This exhibition shows subjects discovered on local hiking trails and gardens.

The TSBA is an active circle of the American Society of Botanical Artists, an international organization dedicated to the advancement of Botanical Art. Botanical and Natural Science art aids in plant identification and environmental awareness. A portion of the sales will provide a tax-deductible donation to benefit the works and programs of the New York-New Jersey Trail Conference.

Members of TSBA meet monthly at NYBG to discuss their artistic journeys, share works in progress, plan and participate in relevant field trips and promote their art. Many of the artists have been juried into international competitions, have received certification and are instructors of Botanical Art at NYBG’s Adult education program.

Dick Rauh, celebrated Artist, Botanist and Instructor will be speaking at the reception. He will discuss his journey in Botanical Art as well as presenting an informative and fun powerpoint on moss.

Vote for “Hikers Choice” at the Gift shop between August 30 and September 25 for a chance to win a $25 gift certificate good at the gift shop. Drawing will be during the reception on September 25th.
