History talks return to the Schmidt House! After a long closure due to COVID and a construction project, we’re pleased to announce that monthly History Talks are back! Join us each month for a free hour-long talk on social or natural history, each presented by a recognized expert. All talks will be at noon on a specified Thursday. First come, first seated until capacity is reached.
Join our guest speaker, George Walter, to learn how to better appreciate and enjoy our avian neighbors. In this illustrated talk, George will discuss local birds, their habits, and identifying characteristics. George is the environmental program manager at the Nisqually Indian Tribe’s natural resources department. He’s been observing birds for over 40 years, and writes a birding column for JOLT News.
History Talks are free to attend, and start at noon. Doors will open at 11:45a.
