Seriously? I got time, but clearly, ya’ll don’t. Come see "Under Construction: Collage from The Mint Museum" on view until March 22 at the Dixon. nytimes.com/2020/03/03/sty…

Cedar waxwings eating newly ripened berries from the holly bushes outside my office window. If I knew they were coming I’d have washed my window.

There are always a fair amount of birds and wild life at the Dixon. But since we have no visitors and there are very few staff on the property these days, nature is claiming the choicest spots for itself.

You have to love the plants such as camellias, mahonia, and edgeworthia that resist the urge to go to sleep and put out winter flowers. What a gift!

Dixon is pay what you choose rest of this week. Transitioning shows, but Memphis Vive and our French paintings worth price of admission.

Storm blew thru the Dixon last night. A small tree fell & summer's worth of dead twigs and branches scattered on ground like a big collage.

Great fun Friday night at Dixon's Art on Tap, the first and the orginal beer tasting in the city. Emphasis on local and on craft.

New study connects museum visits with increases in subjective happiness. In the home of the blues, we should visit Dixon more often.

200 yr old Bonsai trees now at Dixon-amazing. Been tended almost daily for that long. Think about how many things can go wrong in 200 yrs.

Roberta Smith's NY Times review of Geo Bellows show at Met makes me again wonder whether art critics are necessary. A very 19th c. concept.
