Please join us on Thursday, July 17 for a presentation by Kate Marianchild
From Butterflies to Bears: Oaks as Nature’s Most Generous Trees
The reception will begin at 4 pm with a riveting slide presentation by our guest speaker, author and naturalist Kate Marianchild. Appetizers and desserts will be provided and wine and beer will be available for purchase. The reception will include a drawing for a Nature Journaling Basket that will include Kate’s book and oak identification guide along with painting and drawing supplies.
Kate Marianchild is the author of the bestseller, Secrets of the Oak Woodlands: Plants and Animals among California’s Oaks. In her richly illustrated talk, “From Butterflies to Bears: Oaks as Nature’s Most Generous Trees,” Kate will explain how oaks came to support more life forms than any other plant in North America. She’ll go on to regale us with astonishing information about insects, reptiles, amphibians, birds, and mammals who depend on oaks. At the end of her talk, she will conduct, “The Great Blue Heron and the Chorus Frogs,” a story in which she will turn the audience into a marshful of croaking frogs. You won’t want to miss the surprise ending!
Come browse beautiful art, socialize with artists and friends, and hear a great talk!”
