  • 📖 We’re welcoming back our monthly kids' event, Storytime Studio! On March 7, from 10am to 12pm, we will be hosting a children's book reading of “Maybe Something Beautiful”, followed by a collaborative collage craft session in the museum.

    “Maybe Something Beautiful” was written by F. Isabel Campoy and Theresa Howell and was illustrated by Rafael López. The book is based on the Urban Art Trail in San Diego, California, and reveals how art can transform a community space.

    During this reading and craft activity, kids and parents will have a chance to connect with one of our current exhibitions, “Akimbo” by Zoë Charlton, which brings together personal history and collective memory to reflect on how identity is shaped by place.

    This event will be geared to our younger artists, but all ages are welcome to attend. All materials will be provided, and free parking will be available in the Call Street Garage. 
  • Join us for Wonderful Wednesday at Goodwood Museum & Gardens featuring live music from The Funky Taters!

    The Funky 'Taters band from Tallahassee plays jazz, blues, funk, rock, country, folk, and reggae, a mix that has been called the "Music of the Gulf Coast Highway." The Gulf Coast route is Highway 90, which travels near Interstate 10 (I-10) from the East Coast of Florida, through New Orleans, all the way to Texas. Michael (Mike) W. Lewis is the leader and founder of the Funky 'Taters. He is a singer, guitar player, band leader, and songwriter.

    When asked when he became interested in music, Lewis answers that he “always was... as long as I can remember music has been the magic of the world, the thing that stirs my soul.” When asked about his songwriting, he said, “I try to write fun songs that make you smile, and that make you dance. I don't want to write dramatic sad songs... there is enough sadness in the world today. I would like to give people a happy moment that is not necessarily profound, just enjoyable.”

    Enjoy beer and wine from the Goodwood concession stand, plus delicious bites from Damas Café and a local food truck D's Walking Tacos while you soak in live music beneath Goodwood’s historic oaks.

  • Wonderful Wednesday: House of Hamill
    Wednesday, February 18 | 6–8 PM
    📍 Goodwood Museum & Gardens

    Join us for Wonderful Wednesday at Goodwood Museum & Gardens featuring live music from House of Hamill!

    House of Hamill is an upcycled Celtic Folk trio from Pennsylvania!

    House of Hamill owes its existence - almost entirely - to a series of cancelled flights. Rose Baldino and Brian Buchanan first found themselves onstage together at the 2014 Folk Alliance International conference in Kansas City.

    Rose’s band Burning Bridget Cleary was scheduled to perform, but inclement weather prevented two of her bandmates from flying. Desperate to salvage the showcase, Rose approached Brian, who she knew fronted Canadian celtic rock band Enter the Haggis. She thrust a guitar into Brian’s hands, pulled him onstage, and the two just clicked.

    Four years and hundreds of shows later, the duo was booked to play a closing slot at a Colorado festival, so they hired a bass player and drummer to fill out their sound. By the oddest of coincidences, their hired bandmates’ flights were canceled the day of the show. A frantic Facebook post introduced Brian and Rose to local musician Caroline Browning, who joined them on bass for the weekend. Once again, the chemistry was undeniable, and House of Hamill became a trio.

    Today, Pennsylvania-based House of Hamill is a fixture on festival stages across the US, and have shared their music and stories on the country’s premier folk stages. Their version of “Pound a Week Rise” rose to #1 on the US Folk DJ charts, and the video for their all-violin cover of “Sweet Child O’ Mine” amassed over 16 million views on Facebook, where it was shared over 400,000 times. Their latest release, “Folk Hero,” captures perfectly the frenetic energy and eclecticism of their always engaging live show. A lively collection of original instrumentals, reimagined folk ballads, and new songs that showcase the trio’s versatility, “Folk Hero” is the third House of Hamill album to be funded entirely by their fans.

    Whether they’re ripping through a set of original jigs and reels, adding lush three-part harmonies into traditional folk ballads, or cracking up an audience with stories from the road, House of Hamill puts on a show that captivates audiences from the very first note.

    Enjoy beer and wine from the Goodwood concession stand, plus delicious bites from Damas Café and local food (pizza) truck, MAAD Goat, while you soak in live music beneath Goodwood’s historic oaks.

    Tickets: $5 | Free for Goodwood Members | Free for kids age 15 and under

  • Venvi Art Gallery is excited to announce "Layers", by artist Leah Macdonald. This exhibition will be on display from March 3rd to May 17th, with its opening reception on March 28th from 5-8pm.

    "Layers" showcases Macdonald’s encaustic pieces done on wood panels. These pieces explore accumulation, memory, and transformation through photography, printmaking, and encaustic. Each piece is built through a process of layered collaging, where images are added, obscured, reworked, and repositioned so that no single layer is fixed or final. With Macdonald’s use of photographs of women, horses, and flowers, these works hover between presence and erasure. The encaustic surface both preserves and conceals, which allows fragments to surface while others recede. By adding layers together rather than resolving them, "Layers" reflects the complexity of identity, strength, and vulnerability. The works in this exhibition have meaning that is formed not in a single image, but in the tension and dialogue between them.

    Leah Macdonald obtained her MFA in Photography from the California College of Art. Throughout her career, she has been a commercial photographer, analog printer, and college professor. She later became the Education Curriculum Director at the Manayunk-Roxborough Art Center. In 2007, she was asked to do a live encaustic painting demonstration on the Martha Stewart show. Macdonald’s career in the arts is prolific, with exhibition work, handmade self-published books of her work, and more. She recently launched a new website titled “Lost Light Luv”, which features her analog photography. Her encaustic photos are represented by numerous galleries, including Inliquid Arts, Saatchi Art, Galerie BMG and Cerulean Art Gallery in Philadelphia. Macdonald’s experience in photography and mixed media have become a new artistic technique called “photogestic”. Macdonald also works with students in the Philadelphia school district.

    "Layers" will be on display from March 3rd to May 17th. Its opening will be on March 28th from 5-8pm. Venvi Art Gallery is located at 2901 E Park Ave Unit 2800 Tallahassee, FL 32301. To learn more about this exhibition and Leah Macdonald’s work, please visit www.venviartgallery.com.
