When the Birdsong Ceased: Exploring Early Transatlantic Bird Preservation at the John James Audubon Center

Join us on Sunday, November 23^rd from 10:00am until 11:30am for a in-depth lecture by Dr. Bethany Dahlstrom that explores the parallel origins of the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds (founded as two women’s societies in Manchester and Croydon in 1889) and the Audubon Society (revitalized in Boston in 1896 by Harriet Hemenway and Minna B. Hall), showing how these powerful women reframed bird protection as both a political act and a spiritual duty. Tea and biscuits will be served during the lecture, and registration is highly recommended. More information and registration on our website.

Holidays Are For the Birds! Workshop at the John James Audubon Center
