The exhibit will be taken down if rain seems likely, as moisture may damage the electronics in the sound-producing devices. Based on the forecast as of Friday morning, there is a greater chance of rain on Sunday than on Saturday.
Exciting news! This weekend only, Blandy visitors will have the opportunity to experience a unique soundscape at the Ginkgo Grove!
