The Berkshire Botanical Garden opens its 2012 season with Gimme Shelter: Architects Design for Shade — an exhibition of four distinctly unique shelters on display through October. We welcome to the Garden four design groups: New England Modern & Co, Crisp Architects, Burr & McCallum Architects and Kristine Sprague.
Revisiting high design in small spaces comes on the heels of last year’s popular tree house exhibition and the 2010 “Shed Showâ€â€” both featured in national media and viewed by thousands of visitors. This year, architects provide Garden visitors with shelters from the sun as part of the 2012 theme, Garden on Fire! BBG member price for the opening reception on Saturday, April 28, from 5 – 7 is $25, nonmembers $30. Register on line at www.berkshirebotanical.org.
