Northerly By Night: Saturday, August 13

Saturday, August 13, 2016 from 7:30 PM – 11:00 PM

Eric Leonardson and Amanda Gutierrez lead soundwalks for the Chicago Park District event called Northerly By Night.

Meet them in the nature area. Leonardson will have a field recording set up as a ‘listening station’. This event is an opportunity to…

Meet real live bats, enjoy the perseid meteor shower, night hikes, and more as Northerly Island opens to the public for an evening viewing of the greatest celestial event of 2016, the Perseid meteor shower! Bring a blanket, an evening picnic, and learn how to use a telescope or binoculars to view the summer skies at Northerly Island! Bring marshmallows if you would like to roast them at a campfire, and enjoy a pleasant, family-friendly evening at the park.
