Screening January 24 - February 1, 2026

Secrets from a Forest tells an inspiring story of the intimate relationship between artistic expression and the natural world. Audiences get a chance to experience the “singing spruce” in Italy’s Paneveggio Forest, the source of wood for the Stradivarius violin, encounter the creation of this remarkable instrument inside a violin maker’s studio; and are transported to a concert hall to hear the thrilling and powerful result of this delicate dance between human beings and nature.

Experience the innovative planetarium show Secrets from a Forest. Led by the artistic vision of award-winning nature photographer Jim Brandenburg, award-winning director Neil Lucas, and featuring members of the Minnesota Orchestra, the production tells the story of the relationship between nature and art through the exquisite and rare Stradivarius violin.
