Join us for the 2026 Paul J. Cronin Memorial Lecture, featuring the three artists behind the original commissions for Art & the Landscape: The Land Tells Our Stories, opening across multiple Trustees properties in June 2026. This special program introduces the artists and the distinct landscapes that will host their site-responsive works, offering an early look into how each project reflects personal histories, ecological narratives, and place-based storytelling.
Ella Mahoney (Aquinnah Wampanoag) will draw on her connection to her ancestral homelands in Massachusetts through an installation at Rock House Reservation in West Brookfield, grounding her work in Wampanoag relationships to land, memory, and presence. May Babcock, known for using natural materials to explore themes of displacement and belonging, will create a new work for Moose Hill Farm in Sharon that reflects on our relationship with current day landscapes with their future ecologies. Posey Moulton will transform discarded materials from the fishing industry into a large-scale sculptural environment at the Crane Estate in Ipswich, magnifying the fragile micro-worlds these industries depend on.
Together, these artists ask a powerful question at the heart of this year’s lecture: Can art create an ecology?
