DeVos Art Museum presents SAME AS NEVER [anything to get out of here, right?] art exhibition
October 16 - December 15
One day, three people were [not] surprised to find themselves thinking the same thing. The artists here consider time, bodies, and architecture as sites of resistance and re-imagination.
This exhibition is curated by Snake House VT, an artist-run collaborative composed of Kate Donnelly, Thatiana Oliveira, and Sumru Tekin. Learn more about Snake House here. Artists include Piper Hill,Zerek Kempf, and Shori Sims.

Murmurations features paintings by Leslie Baum, created in the studio from work made as part of her Plein Air Project. The Project offers a fresh spin on plein air painting – the act of painting outdoors from the landscape. All the work on display stems from her ongoing practice of hosting plein air painting dates, in which she invites others to paint alongside her in the open air. In the spirit of this project, we invite you to invite a friend to join you for a self-directed outdoor painting experience. Gather in front of the museum on Thursday, September 25, at 2:00 p.m., and we will head to an outdoor painting spot.
The event is free and open to all. While the museum will have small clipboards and a few supplies available, you are encouraged to bring your supplies, a hard surface to work on, and a blanket or chair to sit on. We will start with an introduction, but instruction is not provided; this is simply an opportunity to paint outdoors with a partner and share that experience with many others doing the same.
