Grounds for Exhibitions − Inaugural Outdoor Exhibitions Series
September 2016 through September 2018
The Mennello Museum inaugurates Grounds for Exhibitions with two large-scale works by American sculptor Alice Aycock installed in the Marilyn L. Mennello Sculpture Garden. The beautiful works, Waltzing Matilda and Twin Vortexes were originally part of series of seven sculptures in Aycock’s significant outdoor exhibition on Park Avenue in Manhattan entitled Park Avenue Paper Chase. Grounds for Exhibition features year-long large-scale sculpture exhibitions by nationally renowned American artists who otherwise would not be shared with Orlando audiences.
Shannon Fitzgerald states: “It is thrilling to inaugurate this outdoor exhibition program with such beautiful work by Alice Aycock, one of America’s most recognized and respected sculptors of her generation. I think visitors will delight in experiencing the stunning sculptures nestled in our lakeside landscape that challenges perspective, materiality, whimsy, and nature—in all its power and fragility. She continues: “This is an extraordinary opportunity for our community to contemplate the vital role art has and the impact it can have when shared in the Public realm.”

In a class led by Harry P. Leu Gardens’ Executive Director, Robert Bowden, discover a surprisingly wide variety of vegetables and fruits that perform their best in our region’s intense summer heat and humidity. As much as we try, there are many herbs that simply cannot take the summer heat of Florida. Cilantro, Thyme, and Sage, for example, are best grown during the winter months. So what’s left? In this informative presentation by the Gardens’ Director (and avid vegetable grower), learn how to grow armloads of vegetables for your family without poisons and pesky weeds. Learn more about which varieties grow best here, proper garden spacing, and when to harvest. If you enjoy eating market fresh vegetables, imagine how incredible freshly picked vegetables can taste.
Robert Bowden is the Director of Leu Gardens and author of several books including Florida Fruit and Vegetable Gardening: Plant, Grow, and Harvest the Best Edibles by Cool Springs Press and Florida Top Ten Garden Guide (Time/Warner). He was the former Director of the Atlanta Botanical Garden and Director of Horticulture at the Missouri Botanical Garden in St. Louis.
Florida Plants Talk at the Mennello Museum: 5:30-7:30 p.m.
Tour the Vegetable Garden at Leu Gardens: 7:45-8:15 p.m.
