Open Wednesday – Sunday, 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Admission free on Sundays.

On view through Jan. 8.

The Taft invited three local artists who work with Wave Pool Art Center’s Welcome Project to decorate a six-foot Christmas tree in the museum’s Duncanson Foyer.

The artists – Gabriela Falconi-Piedra, Pedro Moreno, and Fabiola Rodríguez Ornelas – were born in Ecuador, Bolivia, and Mexico, respectively. Their installation features a fantastic array of paper and fabric birds, butterflies, and flowers, and a paper nest to explore the concepts of migration, belonging, and diversity.
