Timber Tumble

“Timber Tumble” (September 21, 2024)

Timber Tumble, is a forest escape that invites visitors to take a nature break, explore and play among the trees. This one-of-a-kind exhibition features a variety of interactive sculptures shaped out of wood, stone and other natural and found materials sourced from the Montshire’s 110-acre forest property. The exhibition is nestled both in the trees and along the forest edge, and features a series of hand-made and rough-hewn switchbacks, spiral columns, raceways, and ball runs designed to engage the senses and encourage calm.
