Wild Words Event

  • | KU Field Station Roth Trailhead E 1600 Rd Lawrence, KS (map)

Join us to celebrate the release of Wild Words, from Humanities Kansas! Stroll through the wetlands and prairies with restoration ecologist and Executive Director of Native Lands Restoration Collaborative, Courtney Masterson and Megan Kaminski, poet, editor of Wild Words, and Professor of Creative Writing and Environmental Studies at the University of Kansas. We’ll learn about the flowers that dot the fall landscape and interact with poems in the collection as guides to fostering relationships of care and reciprocity. Free copies of Wild Words will be available first-come-first-served.

We'll meet at the Roth Trailhead parking lot at 9:30AM, and venture on a walk through the woods. Our walk will finish at the Rockefeller Prairie. If you're interested in an ADA accessible option, you can meet the group at the Rockefeller Prairie trail deck (there is a parking lot and paved trail leading to the prairie and the deck/seating area) at roughly 10AM. Please email Ruby if you have questions. For more information about the KU Field Station (and maps) visit: https://biosurvey.ku.edu/field...
