'The Stick' Traveling Exhibition by Clay Rice

Event details

This ongoing program runs from Wednesday, Sept. 23, to Sunday, Dec. 13. Hours are 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Wednesdays to Sundays.

This traveling exhibition, developed by South Carolina silhouette artist Clay Rice and the South Carolina State Museum, is based on the artist’s children’s book “The Stick,” about a young boy who embarks on an exciting journey after finding a stick. With original hand-cut illustrations from the artist, “The Stick” will come to life in this fascinating traveling exhibit. Rice blends the elegant black and white silhouette tradition with a colorful world in the story of the power of imagination. 

This exhibit is proudly sponsored by The Nature Foundation of Will County.
