Join Castellani Art Museum (CAM) on Thursday, June 15, from 4:30 to 7:30 p.m. to celebrate three CAM summer exhibitions that depict imagery or use materials from the Niagara landscape, while showcasing the intimate relationship between art and nature. Light refreshments will be served on our beautiful portico, cash bar.

Northward: Niagara River Views features historical views of the northward flowing Niagara River and the settlements on its bank through incredible paintings and prints.

Knowing Land was developed in collaboration with the Tuscarora Environment Program (TEP), an initiative of the Haudenosaunee Environmental Task Force (HETF). This exhibition focuses on the culture-environment connection through Tuscarora Nation community-based artists, oral history excerpts, and historic photographs.

Shaping Nature is a Niagara University student-curated exhibition that explores the relationship between function, nature, and artistry in the work of Buffalo-based potter, Junko McGee.
