Birding is often better when shared.

🌈 This Pride Month, Indiana Audubon is partnering with Conner Prairie for two “Let's Go Birding Together” walks led by our own Bird Programs and Partnerships Manager, Sam Urquidez.

These walks welcome LGBTQ+ community members, allies, families, beginning birders, and anyone looking for an inclusive outdoor experience. Both walks are free with admission.

Episode 6 of Conner Prairie’s podcast Beyond the Revolution is now live. 🇺🇸🎙️ This week, hosts Ryan Shank and Easton Phillips are joined by Abby Zepick, Manager of Collections and Registration, and Henry Raab, Historic Trades Specialist, carpenter, and historic preservationist at Conner Prairie.

What does it take to build a community—and preserve it for the future? From historic structures and handcrafted objects to the stories embedded within them, this conversation explores how the things we make, save, and pass down help shape a uniquely American identity.

Discover how craftsmanship, preservation, and material culture connect the past to the future and help us better understand our place in the American story.
