Art and Nature Mingle in Upcoming Shows at Ned Smith Center, Middle Creek

If you enjoy wildlife art, make plans to attend one or both of the upcoming festivals and shows at the Ned Smith Center and Middle Creek Wildlife Management Area.

Ned Smith Center

The Ned Smith Center for Nature and Art will host its 12th annual Nature and Arts Festival on July 29 – 30 in and around Millersburg in Dauphin County.

View exhibits and take part in more than 40 programs, workshops, and demonstrations for the entire family. Join a recognized faculty honoring Ned and Marie Smith to learn about insects, owls, hawks, edible plants, nature photography, fly-tying, Native American artifacts, the Susquehanna River and much, much more. Children will be able to build their own blue bird box and participate in hands-on activities at the Youth Pavilion. All events are free of charge.

Visit the Festival webpage for more information.

Middle Creek

The 20th annual Wildlife Art Show at the Pennsylvania Game Commission's Middle Creek Wildlife Management Area in Lebanon County will be held August 5-7.
