Exhibition - On Stable Ground: The Carousel of Light

About the Event

This winter exhibition program titled “Americana” includes a display of selected horses from the Carousel of Light, the carousel made by Falmouth artist Lance Shinkle, who worked in the master carousel carving tradition. The carousel is maintained and supported by the Falmouth non-profit The Carousel of Light, it runs during the summer months in the center of Falmouth Village.

Because it does not have a permanent home, Highfield Hall is “hosting” the horses Christmas, Geoffrey, Pearl, Rosebud, and Sweet Caroline, along with Siren Bubbles. They will ‘live’ at Highfield between February and May 2024. The exhibit will include original illustrations for The Horses Took Flight: A Cape Cod Carousel Story, written by Denise Ann Terry, and illustrated by Karen Rinaldo. Also included in the exhibition will be fine charcoal drawings by Sandra Hadley who rendered in detail the horse carvings.

Exhibition Dates: February 7, 2024 – May 12, 2024.
