You may come here to see if birds of a taxidermied feather are posed together, but will stay to learn how an artist's craftsmanship is in the eye of the beholder. Scranton's Everhart Museum, a temple supplanted in the austere setting of Nay Aug Park, seamlessly melds science and art. Not an easy feat to accomplish, mind you, when the notion that education and entertainment are mutually exclusive. But this prevailing theory is deferred at Everhart's masonry façade, and outright debunked within its decorous interior. “I was interested in the mammals, but found myself excitedly discovering the art display upstairs,” muses Wade Bosco, a Taylor resident. “The animals are very well kept and gave me a close-up of birds I could never have appreciated from afar.” 16 • MeSee Magazine
