Join ISN and local partners for an evening of conservation! A series of mini-documentaries created by Nature Change will be shown in downtown Manistee's historic Vogue Theatre. Following the films, enjoy a Q&A with a panel of experts who are featured and/or play an important role in regional conservation efforts. This will be a wonderful opportunity to learn more about everything from aquatic invasive species to oak wilt management. Feel free to come prepared with your own questions!
Each attendee will be entered in a drawing at the end of the night. Prizes include: native plants, invasive species field guides, tee shirts, hats, gift certificates to local businesses, and more!
