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.
When Ways of the Woods wrapped up its 2008 tour,
more than 5,000 school children and a total of 84,000 people
had toured the exhibition. That’s the equivalent of 1 out
of every 25 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 2009
tour schedule to find out when we’ll
be near your community. We hope to see you this year!
