We are thrilled to invite you to celebrate the 10th Anniversary Celebration of Glover’s Ledge on Saturday, September 21, from 8:00 AM to 3:00 PM. All are welcome to join this family-friendly event at Glover’s Ledge filled with nature walks, workshops, art presentations, food and drinks, and more! Please register as to what programs you are interested in attending. In June 2014, 76 acres of forested land were generously donated to Antioch University New England (AUNE), followed by an additional 4 acres that includes our Classroom Barn. Over the past decade, Glover’s Ledge has become a cherished space for learning, stewardship, and community engagement. We invite you to join us in celebrating ten years of progress towards our mission of connecting AUNE with the greater Langdon community.

• Slow Birding and Coffee | 8:00 - 9:00 AM Begin your day with a perfect blend of nature, relaxation, and caffeine. Led by Antioch Bird Club and coffee talk provided by the Institute for International Conservation. Binoculars provided.
• Creating Art in Nature | 9:00 - 10:30 AM Discover the art of making artistic creations in nature using natural materials with Sarah Wilson, AUNE alumna and environmental artist/educator.
