Propping Up Pollinators
From bees to bats and butterflies to beetles, pollinators play a pivotal role in our ecosystem and our world food supply. Yet their numbers are in huge decline. Learn from our panel of experts how to appreciate the fine qualities of these essential creatures and how you can take small steps in helping to recover their habitat. Presented by Sierra Nevada, this discussion will feature panelists from Xerces Society, Adventure Scientists and National Wildlife Federation.

Hike and Draw with Jeremy Collins
Grab your sketchbook or journal and your imagination, as we embark on a virtual hike through Tree People’s Coldwater Canyon Park to explore the natural artist within. Settle into your “home studio” and get instruction from award-winning artist, storyteller, activist and adventurer, Jeremy Collins as you are transported to the outdoors. Taking inspiration from The Dark Divide Film, Jeremy will share his philosophy of in-nature art creation and offer open discussion for the professional, casual, or recreational artist. Presented by Merrell in partnership with TreePeople.
