Located beside Big Lake, the Bonsai Exhibit at Lynden—a collaboration with the Milwaukee Bonsai Society and the Milwaukee Bonsai Foundation--includes a display area for bonsai, waterside teaching patio, and pollinator garden.

Family histories, myth, and memories not only survive migration and cultural transplantation; they persist at the foundations of identity. Warren King’s sophisticated sculptures explore his family’s origins in Shaoxing, China, their journey to the suburbs of Wisconsin, and how he understands this displacement in light of his own Western upbringing. King’s sculptures often combine thematic and aesthetic elements from Chinese and Western traditions, masterfully working cardboard into near life-size figures and wall pieces that recall traditional lacquerware and woodcarving. This exhibition originated at the James Watrous Gallery in Madison, Wisconsin, where it was co-curated by Jody Clowes and Warren King, and is presented in collaboration with the Organization of Chinese Americans-Wisconsin.

The exhibition brings together work by Michelle Grabner and Michael Newhall in the Established category; and three artists in the Emerging category: Sarah Ballard, Margaret Griffin, and Open Kitchen (Rudy Medina and Alyx Christensen). The 2025 Nohl Fellows were chosen in late 2024 from a field of 157 applicants by a panel of three jurors: Efe Igor Coleman, independent curator, Memphis, Tennessee; Raphael Fonseca, Curator of Modern and Contemporary Latin American Art, Denver Art Museum, Denver, Colorado; and Adia Sykes, independent curator and Program Manager, United States Artists, Chicago.
