This tender sculpture, Touch Me, shows a harbor seal and her pup as depicted by local painter and sculptor Katherine Tod Johnstone (1922–1999). It graces the shady courtyard outside the Museum’s Schaefer Gallery and G.W. Blunt White Building, long a favorite spot for visitors. Come visit and enjoy this lovely work of art (or bring home your own mini-reproduction from the Museum Store!).
