Meet local authors & artists as they share their creative work, connections to the wetlands, and more of the outside world —enhancing our connections to nature, a sense of place, and community. 🌎We’ll begin at the Medicine Wheel Earthwork south of the Haskell Campus buildings with a special land recognition with Dr. Daniel Wildcat, a Yuchi member of the Muscogee Nation of Oklahoma. 📖
