Each controlled fire is a conservation spectacle, vital to sustaining the rich tapestry of native flora that supports pollinators, birds, and other prairie wildlife. Serving as open doors to the natural world, our free clubs invite neighbors and peers to explore local ecosystems through creative expression and shared curiosity. From capturing fleeting moments in Photo Club to hands-on discovery in our new Youth Conservation Club, these spaces empower participants to forge lasting connections with both each other and the environment. As a metropolitan oasis, the Center provides a sanctuary where the healing benefits of nature meet intentional programming designed to foster well-being. Whether through forest therapy walks, mindful movement classes, or restorative retreats, we offer many pathways for visitors to find rejuvenation amidst the demands of everyday life. Our rotating Mezzanine Art Gallery exhibits and Sound Waves live concert series highlight the harmony between art and nature’s marvels.

Prairie Restoration | Nature's Palette
T
he color, movement, sounds, and scents of prairies offer endless inspiration. Swallowtail butterflies sip from fragrant blooms, grasshoppers spring across swaying sedges, and sunshine-yellow American Goldfinches flit through the air, singing warbling melodies. This vibrant beauty is the result of thoughtful, active stewardship by our Conservation Team and dedicated volunteers. One of their most impactful methods is also spectacular to witness: prescribed prairie burns.

GAINED DUE TO A PRAIRIE BURN
From a safe distance, artists, learners, and visitors can observe mesmerizing flames move across the landscape, feel their radiant heat, and notice the distinct smell of smoke and char. People of all abilities can witness this from the accessible Central Wetlands Loop trail, and photographers can't resist capturing it through their lenses. Our Nature School students have even returned after a burn to draw the land using its ash and charcoal, exploring the world around them through art and inquiry. In Midwestern prairies, controlled fire is a catalyst for renewal. Every two to five years, carefully timed spring and fall burns help keep prairies open, biodiverse, and full of beautiful life. Spring burns remove early season invasive plants and stimulate the growth of deep-rooted native grasses like big bluestem and indiangrass. Burning in the fall clears accumulated plant material, making way for wildflowers like prairie blazing star and culver's root to flourish the following growing season. Pale green shoots emerge after soils have been blackened by flame and warmed by sunlight, just the beginnings of a succession of new life. The lush, diverse mix of native grasses and wildflowers provide food and shelter for an array of prairie animals, from birds to pollinators—including the federally endangered rusty patched bumble bee. When this valuable habitat thrives, it generates endless wonder for all who experience it.
Prescribed prairie burns are a powerful conservation tool that renews native plants, supports diverse wildlife, and creates a beautiful, healthy landscape that sparks delight, creativity, and curiosity.

BIRD CLUB WALKS
Our forests, prairies, wetlands, and Lake Michigan shoreline serve as muses for Art Club and Photo Club, their splendor offering inspiration and kinship during each monthly meeting. In Photo Club, experienced volunteers guide members—equipped with everything from smartphones to professional lenses—in capturing fleeting moments and exchanging insights for more striking shots. Art Club offers a similar haven, inviting creators to try new projects or continue unfinished ones, exploring mediums ranging from drawing to weaving. In these supportive spaces, participants find freedom to experiment, making art that reflects both the nature around them and their own personal interpretations. Bird Club has been a cornerstone of our programming since 2003, aligning with the Center’s longstanding commitment to high-quality avian habitat conservation. Open to first-time birders and veteran enthusiasts alike, monthly meetings include trail hikes, presentations, and thoughtful discussions, often reflecting the changing bird activity of the season. Participants learn from each other, from visiting speakers, and by observing the vast array of species that have built the Center's reputation as a birding hotspot. Extending our impact outward, our new Youth Conservation Club brings accessible, hands-on environmental education to high school students at no cost. Made possible by the Forest County Potawatomi Foundation, the program debuted this fall with partner school Rufus King, combining Environmental Educator-led monthly after-school meetings with three annual field trips to regional natural areas. The curriculum is shaped through collaboration and empowers teens with the knowledge, confidence, and collective support to make a difference in their own neighborhoods.
Schlitz Audubon clubs fulfill a vital community need: connecting people with one another while fostering creative expression and lifelong learning in nature.

Nature & Wellness | Nature's Palette
S
chlitz Audubon stands as a nature oasis within the metropolitan landscape, where accessibility meets escape. Here, visitors step away from daily routines to immerse themselves in a sanctuary teeming with life. Research demonstrates that time in nature reduces stress, improves cardiovascular health, and fosters overall long-term well-being. We nurture wellness for individuals and groups alike through stewardship of our abundant habitats and intentionally crafted programs for all ages and abilities.
136 FOREST BATHING HIKE
Our Forest Bathing program perfectly exemplifies the intersection of place and program. Thanks to a private donation, one of our Environmental Educators completed training as a Forest Therapy Guide, a certification offered by the Association of Nature and Forest Therapy. During a guided walk on one of our forested trails, she uses spoken invitations designed to open the senses and allow participants to fully connect with their surroundings. Offered regularly by popular demand, the benefits compound with every experience, and participants can apply skills independently.
SPARK! PROGRAMS WERE
For those seeking different pathways, we have additional wellness programs led by exceptional instructors. Tai chi promotes balance and mind-body connection; yoga offers regenerative poses grounded by breathwork; Pilates builds strength through flowing resistance exercises; and meditation develops broader mindfulness. Each program allows visitors to find what resonates most, providing tools for lasting health while surrounded by nature’s invigorating beauty.

Our Mezzanine Art Gallery offers year-round, rotating exhibits that showcase artists from across our community and beyond, giving visitors something fresh to discover and artists a platform to share and sell their work. We spotlight young and seasoned talent alike, partnering with schools, collectives, individual artists, and Nature School students—many inspired by the habitats and wildlife found across our scenic grounds. Opening receptions add an evening of celebration, connecting neighbors and artists through shared appreciation of the arts. The gallery has enriched our community with memorable exhibits since 2017. This year, Zoe Finney’s VIVID photograph collection brought brightness in the midst of winter, while the Green Bay Art Colony unveiled their first ever Milwaukee exhibit, Art of the Aviary. We also spotlighted the Fox Point Artists collective, showcasing the North Shore as a creative hub. The Nature School Art Show, influenced by beloved local artist Mary Nohl, displayed pieces by our youngest learners. Together with student works from the Fox Point Bayside School District and the varied styles of Nature’s Palette, these exhibits delighted all who viewed them. Beyond visual arts, our community-oriented events connect residents with local musicians and makers. Supported by sponsor Terry Rindt, Sound Waves offers family-friendly concerts in the picturesque Pavilion Courtyard and cozy Great Hall. New this year, our May Market hosted local artisan vendors, inviting visitors to purchase nature-inspired treasures, support community businesses, and explore our trails.
From gallery walls to live concerts, the Center strengthens bonds among artists, visitors, and the broader community by elevating the enduring connection between art and nature.

We invite you to consider becoming part of the Evergreen Society, a small group of visionary benefactors who cherish nature and conservation, and who have included Schlitz Audubon in their estate plans. The Evergreen Society recognizes and honors donors who will help advance the mission of Schlitz Audubon in this way. Planned gifts can be made through bequests, retirement plans, charitable remainder trusts, life insurance policies, or appreciated assets. Even if you feel you only have modest means to share, you can still include Schlitz Audubon in your will—you need only believe in our mission. Together, we will decide which aspect of the Center means the most to you, and we will ensure that this area will benefit from your interest. This may include our land conservation efforts, our award-winning Nature School, our celebrated Raptor and Animal Ambassador Program, or our nature-based educational programs with offerings for all ages and abilities. Learn more by contacting us at giving@schlitzaudubon.org or calling 414-352-2880 x122 today!
Every attempt has been made to ensure the accuracy and completeness of our donor list. If you find an error, please contact us at (414) 352-2880 x237 to make a correction.
