SUMMARY:Garden and Forest Tours
DESCRIPTION:Botanical Garden\, Homestead Garden and Forest Trails Tours \nMay 26 – September 3   \nThursdays and Saturdays   \n11am – Noon and  4:00 pm to 5:00 pm   \nCome out and join the Pratt Museum and Park Garden Crew this summer for guided tours of the Botanical Gardens\, Homestead Garden\, and Forest Trails. We will offer an interpretive introduction to the broader\necology of the Kachemak Bay region and describe the ways that we\nincorporate the plant communities of the region into the Botanical Garden\nat the Pratt Museum. Botany experts and novices alike can find delightful\ninsights as we explore the interactions and dynamics of our local\necosystem. \nThe Homestead Garden is an ever-evolving exhibit featuring many\nclassic fruits and vegetables and a few specific local varieties that have\nbeen treasured by the local community for generations. We will explore\nsome of the basics of plant propagation\, discuss the benefits of perennial\nfood crops and talk about food preservation and storage. Snacking is\nencouraged! Throughout the season\, something is always worth sampling\nout of the garden\, though the real delight is black currant season in the\nlate autumn. \nThe Forest Trails showcase the ecological context in which the Pratt\nMuseum and Park is embedded. These trails wind through one of the\nlarger remaining wild spaces in downtown Homer\, and have some of the\nlargest remaining trees in the area. Wildlife is abundant and the plant\ncommunities are diverse. There are several loops of varying distance that\nwind through the nearly 10 acre forest. A meander through these woods\nwith one of our guides will offer an opportunity for wildlife sightings\,\nlistening to songbirds and discussing the ethnobotanical and historical\nuses of plants that live in our region.

DESCRIPTION:The Pratt Museum and Park is hosting an exhibit in collaboration with the World Arts Festival in Homer\, AK. The exhibit is opening September 2 at our First Friday in the downstairs gallery where admission will be free. The exhibit is entitled Universal Connections: Bringing Us Together and is a mix of photographs from around the world curated by Sarah Borgen. ​It is a collaborative exhibit showcasing artwork from local artists. \nMore on the theme of Universal Connections \n\nThroughout our lives\, we get caught in a whirlwind of concerns\, thoughts\, and anxieties only to briefly pierce the interpersonal veil and see ourselves in the eyes of others. These insights can define our lives by how we sense interconnectivity with all people and each person’s unique experiences of life.  \n\n\n“Universal Connections: Experiences Bringing Us Together” is a collaborative photo exhibit of moments where we see ourselves in each other\, a shared encounter of being human.
