PEOPLE | CULTURE | HAPPENINGS | TRENDS beach bites Arboretum Art Bird Bungalows By PAM CREECH Photography by ALLISON POTTER A s flowerbeds turn dusty shades of brown and birds begin scavenging for cool-weather rations, artist Bonnie Gaynor also begins hunting for scraps of wood and metal to create the birds’ winter shelters. Paintings, metal sculptures and Gaynor’s birdhouses adorning the New Hanover County Arboretum grounds will be sold during Art in the Arboretum, Friday through Sunday, October 3-5. Funds raised from the art show’s admissions will benefit the arboretum, which is normally free to the public. Alice Wilson, co-chair of 3-D art, says, “We have 120 artists that we expect to participate. We have a diverse collection of art this year and it’s all local.” Bonnie Gaynor’s birdhouses made from recycled materials will be among the art and craft available during the New Hanover County Arboretum’s fundraiser, Art in the Arboretum, October 3-5. 15 www.wrightsvillebeachmagazine.com WBM
