Lewis Ginter Botanical Garden recently opened its outdoor art exhibition, “Homes & Habitats,” featuring works by seven local artists. The exhibition, which runs through Sept. 28, showcases large-scale installations that explore ecosystems and human interactions with nature.

Participating artists include Heather Beardsley, Bethany Allen, Matt Lively, Tim Harper, Dietrich Teschner, Alfonso Pérez Acosta, Tori Qualls, and Sam Christian.

Notable installations include “Conversation with Bees” by Beardsley and “The Love Nest” by Aleyah Grimes, which are designed to be interactive and educational.

The exhibition challenges visitors’ perspectives on natural environments and human connections through works like “Four Friends,” “Interwoven Ecosystems,” and “The Barefoot Circle,” according to a press release.

The exhibition is included with regular garden admission and free for members. For more information, visit lewisginter.org.
