OVERVIEW
Celebrate history and nature and share your own stories at the Aldo Leopold Nature Center on this walk-the-grounds event.
This program includes a walking tour of our land and an exploration of the history of our site. The walk will be followed by a hands-on workshop on land and tradition led by Ho-Chunk artist and educator, Lightning New Rider and a Share Your Favorite Nature Story or Memory of the Aldo Leopold Nature Center table.
The event is part of this year’s Make History Madison project. This is a participatory story-sharing and public memory project about land, place, and local history featuring a citywide Map250 interactive story platform.
