Virtual Fall Celebration with Dr. J. Drew Lanham

Support Friends of Buford Park & Mt. Pisgah by attending a special virtual fundraising event on September 27th at 5:00 pm ET with special guest Dr. J. Drew Lanham. Tickets start at $20 per person, and all proceeds will support the Friends' ongoing efforts in stewardship and restoration at Buford Park and the Greater Mt. Pisgah Area.

Dr. Lanham’s virtual remarks will reflect on his lifelong love of birds and wildlife and the part they play as connectors across time, place, and cultures throughout history. Lanham believes that for the conservation of wildlife and green spaces to be truly successful it must generate a deep appreciation for the cultural ties that link people of all backgrounds to the natural world. The author/educator’s enthusiasm and gift for storytelling has brought birding—and its connections to history and race—to a new generation of diverse audiences across the country.
