A pop-up art exhibition set in defunct historic greenhouses.
Salad Days
Salad Days Exhibition · Sept - Oct 2025 · Allen C. Haskell Public Gardens, New Bedford, MA ·
Salad Days was an exhibition in historic greenhouses of the late Allen Haskell, known as ‘a nurseryman with an artist’s eye’. Salad Days reimagines the defunct glass houses as vessels for dreaming: a contemplative nursery for a more hopeful future.

From Scotland to California, 21 artist’s were chosen for their work that bridges the functional and the fantastical—pieces that feel like tender inventions, emotional relics, or hopeful fictions.
This is a celebration of the urge to ornament, to myth-make, to wool-gather—a soft rebellion against the sterile and the mass-produced.

“We are particularly drawn to ornamentation, traditional and novice craft, the handmade, the slow, the flawed, and the found—artifacts that carry the unmistakable imprint of the human hand.”
