Object Lesson is a monthly First Friday speaker series that will open wide the cases of the Center’s Museum Collection through the perspectives of individuals from the worlds of art, design, performance, community activism, education, and more, creating fresh dialogues about the Collection and its objects. The series invites the public for an up-close and personal experience in an informal, discursive setting that will encourage exploration of the many treasures in the Collection.
Jack Larimore grew up in the cherry orchard region of northeastern Michigan. He attended Michigan State University earning a degree in Landscape Architecture in 1973. Since 1983, Larimore has been self employed as a sculptor and furniture maker. His work has been exhibited internationally and is included in major private and public collections. Additionally, he has served as a Professor in the Crafts Department at The University of the Arts in Philadelphia, as an Advisory Board Member of The Furniture Society, as a Trustee for the Center for Art in Wood and a Board member at Wheaton Arts and Cultural Center.
This event is free to the public. The Center for Art in Wood interprets, nurtures, and champions creative engagement and expansion of art, craft, and design in wood to enhance the public’s understanding and appreciation of it. A suggested donation of $5 per person enables us to provide programs and exhibitions throughout the year.
