For the fourth year, Charlotte Woolf returns to Foxtrot Farm & Flowers to curate an exhibition and weekend of programming for Upstate Art Weekend.

This year’s exhibition centers on bugs and their vital role in sustaining ecosystems. How do insects connect to every living thing around us? From pollination to decomposition, bugs shape the environments we inhabit, often in ways that go unseen. The exhibition invites artists to consider these small but powerful creatures and the ecological networks they support.

The exhibition features work by more than forty artists living across the US and Canada. All works are small-scale, with a maximum size of 18 × 24 inches, emphasizing close looking and intimate encounters.

The weekend’s programming expands on the themes of the exhibition through tattoo pop-ups, a workshop with Cottage Courses, farm activities, and a reading featuring Patricia Ononiwu Kaishian, Maria Pinto, and Chris Baker.
