Dave Dunn is a metal sculptor based in Silver Spring, Maryland. He creates movement and whimsy by welding found, repurposed and new metal objects into his artwork, which are displayed around the United States and in Europe. This collection, titled Reelfoot Critters, is inspired by his childhood summer visits with family in the nearby river port town of Hickman, Kentucky, with days spent on the Mississippi River and at Reelfoot Lake.

An opening reception for this exhibit will take place on Thursday, Feb. 27, 2025, from 5:30-7 p.m. At 6:00 p.m., Discovery Park senior director of exhibits and collections Jennifer Wildes will conduct a brief interview and Q&A with the artist. This event is FREE for all guests. Light refreshments will be served.
