This exhibition features artworks responding to Robert Frost’s poem Nothing Gold Can Stay. The fifteen artists explore dichotomies of beauty and decay, the inevitability of time, and transformation. This exhibition honors Frost’s poem and also notes the moments of delight and turbulence that are a part of being an artist. The artists involved came together to celebrate the seasons of Spring and Summer before they leave us again.

Nothing Gold Can Stay
“Nature’s first green is gold,
Her hardest hue to hold.
Her early leaf’s a flower;
But only so an hour.
Then leaf subsides to leaf.
So Eden sank to grief,
So dawn goes down to day.
Nothing gold can stay.”
Her hardest hue to hold.
Her early leaf’s a flower;
But only so an hour.
Then leaf subsides to leaf.
So Eden sank to grief,
So dawn goes down to day.
Nothing gold can stay.”
‑Robert Frost (1874 – 1963)
