Established in 1994, SITE is a cornerstone outreach initiative of Garrison Art Center. This year’s theme, Rooted: Art in the
Natural World invites students from 19 local elementary, middle, and high schools to explore the connection between art and nature—and to reflect on our relationship with the natural world. Students are encouraged to incorporate natural elements into their work, create materials from found or organic sources (such as walnut ink or onion-skin dye), or design art meant to interact with outdoor environments. The exhibition celebrates creativity grounded in curiosity, stewardship, and our shared connection to the world around us.
