Celebrate the closing of “Garden for Boston,” the MFA’s first living, growing exhibition, outside on the Museum’s Huntington Avenue lawn. Ann and Graham Gund Director Matthew Teitelbaum shares thoughts on the two installations comprising the exhibition, Radiant Community by Ekua Holmes (African American) and Raven Reshapes Boston: A Native Corn Garden at the MFA by Elizabeth James-Perry (Aquinnah Wampanoag). Then James-Perry and one of Holmes’s collaborators discuss the two installations and the big ideas behind them.
