2015-06- Gallery Talks - 2014-2015 -The History of Houses and the Things That Make Them Home


The continuation of our Gallery Talks series with a discussion of the 2014-2015 Richmond Gallery exhibition, The History of Houses and the Things That Make Them Home. Since prehistoric times, where we live has been about much more than shelter (think of those cave paintings). The 2014-2015 exhibit explored just how our human instinct to nest has played out in the structures we inhabit and the stuff we put in them.

Peggy Dellinger, Exhibit Director of the Township of Ocean Historical Museum discusses the exhibition; Produced by Ted Dellinger; Music is by Bill Madden.

Funding for Gallery Talks was provided by the New Jersey Cultural Trust.
