Tuesdays, Feb. 7-21, 10 a.m.-12 p.m.

The Tallgrass Prairie has been sustaining, mystifying, plowed almost to disappearance, saved in small acreages, recreated, and much revered. Kansas writers have, since their first contact with what poet Kenneth Wiggins Porter called "an ocean of grass to the stirrups," tried to describe and celebrate the prairie landscape. Join us on a walking and reading tour through the grasslands and through history, from indigenous writing to contemporary appreciations.
