Through April 26 – The Path Taken: Photography by Lawrence Mullings

On any given day, Lawrence Mullings can be found exploring the paths and hidden corners of the Arboretum. While walking in the landscape to regain his health, his joy in photography was rekindled. He saw how the Arboretum was many different things to him, and to the many different people who come here from around the neighborhood and around the world. To Mullings, the Arboretum is its trees, as well as the myriad ways visitors enjoy them and this landscape. Now revived in spirit and in creativity, Mullings brings to our exhibition the inspirational scenes he has captured along the “Paths” he has taken throughout the year. Lawrence Mullings is also an Arnold Arboretum docent who leads tours in our landscape.   His exhibition will be displayed in the Hunnewell Building of the Arnold Arboretum through April 26. Free, public invited .
