Discover the stirring story behind Ken Hall’s Legacy sculpture—a life-sized killer whale skeleton meticulously carved from reclaimed cedar. This masterpiece is a highlight of the " Orcas: Our Shared Future " exhibition at the Denver Museum of Nature & Science.
Join us for an enlightening conversation between artist Ken Hall and Chris Patrello, Assistant Curator of Anthropology at the Denver Museum of Nature & Science. Enjoy an exclusive glimpse into Ken’s creative process and engage with us in a profound discussion about his dedication to sharing his nature-focused artistic vision with the world. He and Chris will explore how Ken’s art connects to the themes of "Orcas: Our Shared Future,” including the complexities of our vulnerable ocean ecosystems, orca culture and biology, and the deep and ongoing relationships between orcas and various Indigenous communities.
Don't miss this chance to deepen your understanding and celebrate the intricate details of this awe-inspiring sculpture and the story behind it.
