Mountain Lakes House

Celebrate Arbor Day with Friends of Princeton Open Space as we bring together art, ecology, and stewardship. 
Join the Friends of Princeton Open Space (FOPOS) and eco-artist Susan Hoenig on Friday, April 24th at 10 AM for a guided nature walk and exhibition that brings together art, ecology, and conservation. Learn how we can all play a role in protecting American beech trees and the forest ecosystems that depend on them.
The program begins inside the Mountain Lakes House with a curated viewing of American beech tree artwork by eco-artist Susan Hoenig. Her work explores the intricate relationships between trees, forest habitats, and biodiversity. Susan will share the inspiration behind her work and her focus on the American beech as both subject and symbol. Then, we’ll head out on a guided nature walk to a grove of beech trees in John Witherspoon Woods with the FOPOS stewardship team.
American beech trees are a keystone species in our forests, providing food and shelter for wildlife, supporting soil health, and sustaining diverse plant and animal communities. Today, however, they face a growing threat from Beech Leaf Disease (BLD), a rapidly spreading condition impacting trees across the region and threatening the long-term survival of beech populations. After viewing the exhibition, participants will take a guided nature walk to a grove of beech trees in John Witherspoon Woods. There, Anna Corichi, Director of Natural Resources and Stewardship for Friends of Princeton Open Space (FOPOS), will discuss current conservation efforts and share FOPOS’s beech tree management plan, offering insight into how the organization is responding to BLD.
This program offers a unique opportunity to connect art with environmental action while gaining a deeper understanding of a vital native tree and what it will take to protect its future.

Trail Conditions: Wear sturdy shoes as the terrain is uneven with frequent rock outcrops along the natural surface path.
Location: Mountain Lakes House, enter through the dark green front door
Directions &amp; Parking: We will meet at the Mountain Lake House, located within the Billy Johnson Mountain Lakes Nature Preserve. Here is a link to the parking lot location on <a href="https://www.google.com/maps/place/Parking+lot,+Princeton,+NJ+08540/@40.3633252,-74.678648,717m/data=!3m1!1e3!4m6!3m5!1s0x89c3e69a822d366f:0x7d2312827f4d8ea3!8m2!3d40.3627034!4d-74.6754476!16s%2Fg%2F11cpn4ll96?entry=ttu&amp;g_ep=EgoyMDI1MDYyMy4yIKXMDSoASAFQAw%3D%3D" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Google Maps</a> &amp; <a href="https://maps.apple.com/place?map=explore&amp;place-id=I8FD7F90A0B23B18F&amp;address=57+Mountain+Ave%2C+Princeton%2C+NJ++08540%2C+United+States&amp;coordinate=40.3633412%2C-74.6760686&amp;name=The+Mountain+Lakes+House&amp;_provider=9902" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Apple Maps</a>.

The gravel parking lot will be on your left, approximately 1/2 mile down the driveway.
About FOPOS: Since 1969, FOPOS has been working to preserve and protect natural spaces in the greater Princeton area and provide environmental education for the community. As a part of our work, we rely on volunteers to help make progress when it comes to restoration work, such as our current forest and riparian restoration projects in the Billy Johnson Mountain Lakes Nature Preserve.
About Susan Hoenig:
Susan Hoenig connects Earth and Art to make visible the relationship between habitat, plant and animal life. She studies the evolutionary impact of the forest understory. In 2022, she received the Indigenuity Contest Honoring the Lessons of Our Mother Earth from the Museum of the Native American History in Bentonville, Arkansas. In 2022, Susan had an exhibition: "Uprooted Trees, Magicicadas and Climate Change" at the Princeton Public Library, sponsored by a grant from the Puffin Foundation. In 2020, Susan was artist-in-residence at Mountain Lakes Nature Preserve in Princeton, NJ where she collaborated with Friends of Princeton Open Space to draw attention to the value and beauty of native trees. One of Susan's leaf sculptures, the American chestnut, is situated alongside newly planted American chestnut saplings with 100% native seeds. A documentary was made of this restoration project. Recently, in 2024, Susan had an exhibition, "Rhythms of the Land" at the Hutchins Galleries, NJ.

Prallsville Mills

POINTS OF VIEW CELEBRATES ART IN BUCKS COUNTY
The first Points of View Art show was in September 2014. This yearJeanne Chesterton and Ilene Rubin will host their 11th Points of View Art Show in April. This is a celebration of art that consistently includes a who’s who list of some of the best artists in the region. Getting better attendance, a wonderful variety of art and being a must-attend destination every year, Chesterton and Rubin will once again open the doors to some of the finest art, beginning with a reception April 24th from 5-8pm. The show continues Saturday and Sunday, April 25th and 26th, 12-5pm at the Saw Mill at Prallsville Mill, 33 Risler Street in Stockton, NJ, 08559.
Showcasing their art will be Jeanne Chesterton and Ilene Rubin, together this year with invited artists Kat Collins of Eason, PA and Bucks County artists Deborah Eater, Pat Powell, and James Feehan and Susan Roseman. All art is for sale. 
Chesterton and Rubin have found that joining talent with location to exhibit and sell art has been a winning combination and an endeavor that they enjoy promoting. The art complements each other while all are vastly different. All the invited artists are well known, award-winning, and bring a unique voice and interpretation to the visual art community. Embodying their own perspective toward art, all the artists are at the top of their artistic journeys, offering an impressive, professionally created body of work. 
There is something for everyone with little to no overlap of style or range. All have amassed their own following and niche in an otherwise crowded art field in the Bucks County/ River Towns region. It’s a unique blend with a wide price range. Whether your penchant is for traditional still life or landscape, an exploration of abstract or assemblage art, you will find it here, right in the heart of Bucks County art country.
