Last chance to see some great exhibits this weekend!

Mid-sum­mer is a great time here on Gov­er­nors Island. Don’t miss your last chance to see some of the exhibits in Nolan Park!

Con­clud­ing this week­end is Rama’s Med­i­ta­tion Event and Exhib­it. This Sat­ur­day and Sun­day there will be med­i­ta­tion ses­sions at 11:30AM and 4:30PM. At 1:30PM on Sat­ur­day there will be Med­i­ta­tion for artists, and on Sun­day at the same time there is a Zen With­out Robes ses­sion. Mate­ri­als and class­es are FREE and staff are ready and will­ing to answer any med­i­ta­tion ques­tions you may have! There is also an exhib­it on Med­i­ta­tion and the Brain.

Next week­end, the Elec­tron­ic Art Fes­ti­val, Bil­lion Oys­ter Project and The Art of Intu­itive Pho­tog­ra­phy Gallery Show end their runs in Nolan Park. The Oys­ter Project is an exhib­it run by the Har­bor School here on the Island which high­lights the role of oys­ters in the NY Har­bor. The Elec­tron­ic Art Fes­ti­val dis­plays art­works that were made using new and evolv­ing tech­nol­o­gy and the Art of Intu­itive Pho­tog­ra­phy Gallery Show fea­tures pho­tos from stu­dents and teach­ers that won a selec­tion process. AoIP will also run a walk about class on Sat­ur­day and Sun­day- all lev­els invited.

Head out to Nolan Park this week­end and next to take advan­tage of the last days of these amaz­ing exhibits and programs!
