Come get your hands in the dirt at Wild Knoll Foundation Garden! Join Artist Carly Glovinski for a grounding, hands-on experience that reconnects you with the earth. This is not your typical garden tour—it's an invitation to engage. Weed, dig, observe, plant, and learn. Whether you're new to gardening or simply curious, this experience is about doing rather than admiring. Rooted in the belief that gardening is a form of “world-making,” the focus is on presence, curiosity, and connection—not expertise.
Now in its fourth year, The Wild Knoll Foundation Garden has become a place for community engagement, events, plant sales, and collaborative art installations. Glovinski's approach emphasizes the garden as a dynamic, evolving gathering place, classroom, and sanctuary that fosters community involvement and creative exploration while reflecting the rhythms and sensory richness of the natural world. This new hands on program invites people of all ages and backgrounds to the garden to contribute, learn, and grow together.
About Carly Glovinski
Carly Glovinski makes work that explores the make-do, resourceful attitudes associated with domestic craft and placemaking. Rooted in observations of her surrounding environment, and a curiosity about natural and human-made systems, her work embraces a slip in perception and employs a wide range of materials. The elements of time and place are often embedded, and the rhythms of repetitive processes, either invented or borrowed are a guide.
She received her BFA from Boston University, is represented by Morgan Lehman Gallery in New York, and has had solo exhibitions at Mass MoCA, North Adams, MA and Colby Museum of Art, Maine. She has been awarded residencies at Kenyon College (Ohio), Surf Point (Maine) and Canterbury Shaker Village, and grants from the Berkshire Taconic Foundation, and the Blanche Colman Trust. Her work has been included in numerous group exhibitions both nationally and internationally and has been published or reviewed in publications including, Two Coats of Paint, Colossal, New American Paintings, ArtMaze Magazine, and Hyperallergic, and is held in prominent collections such as Farnsworth Art Museum, Cleveland Clinic, and Fidelity Corporation. Carly lives and works in South Berwick Maine, where she tends to an ongoing living work, Wild Knoll Foundation Garden. In the summer of 2025, she will complete her first large scale public work in Boston, MA.
