Join us for a very special evening when Corrie Williamson gives the 2025 Stephen Ambrose Memorial Lecture: Revery Will Do: Imagination and Conservation on Montana’s Great Plains.Corrie Williamson—author, teacher, naturalist, and Community Outreach Director at American Prairie—will blend poetry, history, and restoration ecology in a presentation that travels across time, geography, and literature. She will be introduced by Stephenie Ambrose-Tubbs, daughter of the late Stephen E. Ambrose, for whom the lecture is named. Ambrose-Tubbs is an American Prairie emeritus board member and author of several books about the Lewis and Clark Trail.
Williamson will share her connections to the history and landscape of the Corps of Discovery, and how it led her to Montana and to her work connecting storytelling, conservation, and communities.
Her lecture will include work from her award-winning collections of poems as well as other important literary touchpoints and perspectives related to the Great Northern Plains’ history and habitat.
Williamson will also discuss her work at the conservation NGO American Prairie and their mission to connect, protect, and share 3.2 million acres of Montana’s grasslands.
The Montana Book Company will sell Williamson’s books of poetry and there will be time set aside for visiting and book signing. We hope you can join us!
