Wisconsin’s John Muir: An Exhibit Celebrating the Centennial of the National Park Service

April 5, 2027 – April 30, 2027

“Oh, that glorious Wisconsin wilderness!”

Commemorating the centennial of the National Park Service, the traveling display Wisconsin’s John Muir: An Exhibit Celebrating the Centennial of the National Park Service explores Muir’s youth in Wisconsin, his advocacy for national parks, and his views on environmental issues such as logging, hunting, and climate change. Its eight panels share facsimiles of images and manuscripts from the Society’s library and archives alongside Muir quotes and interpretive texts.

The Muir display and reading program was funded by bequests from John A. Peters and the Kenyon and Mary Follett family.
