Inhabiting a 14-foot-tall metal weather vane created by sculptor Tim Scofield, Baltimore's In-Flight Theater (Mara Neimanis) and Washington's Arachne Aerial Arts (Andrea Burkholder and Sharon Witting) welcome museum members into their creative process as they rehearse their newest collaborative work, For That Which Returns. In this retelling of the classic myth of Demeter and Persephone, three women mine their own personal experiences to weave an original story exploring the cycles of connection between mothers, daughters and the seasons.
