Please join us to work on the Farley Center Snow Labyrinth 2022 at the Farley Center from 11:00-1230 on Sunday, February 6.

The Farley Center snow labyrinth has been completed and will be soon open to the public. However, we would like to have volunteers come and walk the labyrinth to stamp down the snow so it is easier for people to walk it. This year we made it closer to the parking area so it is a shorter walk up the trail.

Please meet at the lower parking lot at the Center, We will walk/snowshoe to the labyrinth from there.

Please dress for outdoor weather. Wear good boots or bring your snowshoes.

Please social distance and wear masks if you feel more comfortable. We do require that all volunteers be vaccinated for the safety of all our volunteers and staff.

If you have any questions, please e-mail programs@farleycenter.org.

Gene Farley Sculpture Exhibit
Opening Reception – Sat, Aug. 13,
1:00-2:30

Many of you who have been out to the Farley Center have noticed the many sculptures that are grace the land.

Gene Farley was a man of many talents. In addition to being the Chair of the UW Family Medicine, he was active in many progressive groups but he also enjoyed creating these large metal sculptures and drawing what he called doodles.

There are a total of 17 sculptures at the Center. There is another one in front of the Social Justice Center in Madison and another in Golden, CO.

We will kick off the Gene Farley Sculpture Exhibit on Sat, August 13 from 1:00-2:30 at the Farley Center. Please join us for light refreshments and take a map and take a self guided sculpture tour. This exhibit will be a permanent exhibit at the Center.

Linda Farley also was artistic and talented and enjoyed painting with watercolors. The watercolor is from a photo of Gene working on a sculpture. Linda named it “Sculpturer with Red Gloves.”
