Birds in the Moon Student Exhibition

The Art Department is pleased to announce a collaboration with The Broad Stage for their upcoming world premiere of a new, mobile chamber opera, Birds in the Moon. SMC students will create artworks in response to the opera and its themes, which draw on a fantastical 17th c. theory that birds migrate to the moon and back each year. Christopher Badger, Director of the Pete and Susan Barrett Gallery, will select works from this page to create a curated virtual exhibition. The Broad Stage will then select work from the virtual exhibition for uses to be determined during the run of the event.
