2022 Spring Events

We are springing into the new season with some fresh events! Join
us for Glacier Conversations
( [link removed] ) later this
month featuring a conversation with Glacier National Park
Archeologist Brent Rowley. Learn about the complex relationship
between bison and people from the end of the Pleistocene to the
late 19th century, based on ongoing archeological research
undertaken by the park’s Cultural Resources Program.

This event takes place during National Park Week
( [link removed] )
, and there are some other fun events going on throughout the
week with our local business partners.

In May, Glacier Book Club ( [link removed] ) returns featuring The Songs of Trees by David George Haskell.
Haskell repeatedly visits a dozen trees, exploring connections
with people, microbes, fungi, and other plants and animals.
Spanning across cities, forests, and areas on the front lines of
environmental change, Haskell shows how human history, ecology,
and well-being are intimately intertwined with the lives of
trees.

Glacier Conversations

Cultural History of Bison in Glacier National Park
with Park Archeologist Brent Rowley

Wednesday, April 20
6:30PM MDT

Join Glacier National Park Archeologist Brent Rowley and learn
about the complex relationship of bison and people from the end
of the Pleistocene to the late 19th Century based on ongoing
archeological research undertaken by the park’s Cultural
Resources Program.

People often think of bison as being only a plains animal, but
they inhabited the mountain environments of Glacier as well!
Bison played a central role to the Indigenous cultures of the
region, so where there were bison, there were people trying to
hunt them. This project attempts to tell the story of
interactions between people and bison in the high country of
Glacier based on nearly 13,000 years of archeological evidence in
the region.

Glacier Book Club

The Songs of Trees
by David George Haskell

Wednesday, May 18
6:30PM MDT

David Haskell has won acclaim for eloquent writing and deep
engagement with the natural world. Now, he brings his powers of
observation to the biological networks that surround all species,
including humans. Haskell repeatedly visits a dozen trees,
exploring connections with people, microbes, fungi, and other
plants and animals. He takes us to trees in cities (from
Manhattan to Jerusalem), forests (Amazonian, North American, and
boreal) and areas on the front lines of environmental change
(eroding coastlines, burned mountainsides, and war zones.) In
each place he shows how human history, ecology, and well-being
are intimately intertwined with the lives of trees.

Scientific, lyrical, and contemplative, Haskell reveals the
biological connections that underpin all life. In a world beset
by barriers, he reminds us that life’s substance and beauty
emerge from relationship and interdependence.

Registration is now open! You can purchase the book
( [link removed] ) in our online
store. All proceeds from your purchases support Glacier National
Park!
