Mass Migrations Exhibit Opening reception is January 26, 2019, from Noon until 1:30 PM.

Mass migrations take place all over the world, yet when someone mentions mass migration, we are more likely to imagine huge herds of wildebeests and zebra on the plains of Africa than the visitors who come to our own backyards, ponds, rivers, forests and beaches right here in New England. You don’t have to go on a safari halfway around the globe to encounter a migratory species, sometimes you simply have to step out into your own yard. This themed art exhibit is focusing on various species who travel either to or through New England on their annual migratory paths. This theme will bring awareness and attention to the many varied species who visit New England all year round, where they come from, where they go and why.

This themed art exhibit has migrated from its first gallery appearance at the Great Ponds Gallery in the Lakeville Library to the Akillian Gallery at Massasoit Community College in Canton, MA. If you missed the first showing, now is your chance to see it in person.

Akillian Gallery hours:

• Monday through Friday from 10 AM to 2 PM, or by appointment.
