Ways of the Woods
Ways of the Woods: People and the Land
in the Northern Forest is the Center’s mobile museum about
the changing relationships among people and the land. This
traveling exhibition combines interactive displays with live
performance and demonstration to showcase the history, culture
and heritage of the Northern Forest.
In the first 10 months that Ways of the Woods traveled
through the Northern Forest, more than 3,500 school children
and a total of 40,000 people toured the exhibition. That’s
the equivalent of 1 out of every 40 residents!
Housed in a 53-foot tractor-trailer
that is decorated with images of the Northern Forest, the exhibit
visits communities, schools, fairs, festivals and local events
across the Northern Forest and beyond.
In 2008, we’ll be visiting schools, forestry expos and logging
festivals, recreation and heritage events and a host of state
and county fairs. See the complete 2008
tour schedule to find out when we’ll be near your community. We hope to
see you this year!
