A local beekeeper leads a tour of Peter Coffin’s Untitled (Bees Making Honey) (2012). The tour educates visitors about honeybees and their dependence on the sun for communication and survival. Participants receive a gift of local honey: a proposed answer to the artist’s whimsical question, “What does light taste like?”

No registration required
Program location: The tour meets at the southern edge of Storm King’s property. Participants will walk to the apiary, about a 5-minute walk on a gravel path, from Maya Lin’s Storm King Wavefield.
