RSVP to Remaining “Walkshops” about Ashland Superfund Site 12/9 and 12/12

Posted in News

In conjunction with his Illuminating Futures exhibit at Ashland (MA) Public Library, Prospectus artist Dan Borelli (The Cloud of Unknowing) will present two more “Walkshops” on Wednesday, December 9, at 6:30 p.m. and Saturday, Dec. 12, at 10:30 a.m. If you plan to attend one of the “Walkshops,” please RSVP to admin@ashlandnyanzaproject.com

The exhibit focuses on the history and legacy of the Nyanza Colorant Plant Superfund site in Ashland and is on view through December 19.  Borelli, who is a native of the town, created the exhibit as the first stage of his Illuminating Futures art-based research project, the goal of which is to increase awareness and understanding of soil and water contamination in the town as well as promote psychological healing among affected townspeople.

“Walkshop” participants will initially meet in the library exhibit, located at 66 Front St. in Ashland. Each “Walkshop” will last approximately 90 minutes and will include a tour of the exhibit, a walking tour of relevant sites in Ashland, and a question/answer period.
