50 years ago, Joe and Lucianne Carmichael purchased the land at 13401 River Road where A Studio in the Woods now lives. Since then, we have hosted more than 130 artists and scholars on the banks of the Mississippi River and worked hard to protect our precious bottomland hardwood forest.

The event is free, but please RSVP via this ticket link

Help us kick off our golden jubilee by getting into the Woods with Environmental Curator David Baker! This year one of the many celebratory programs we have planned are quarterly walks in the woods. Chat with David over lunch and then head out into the woods to learn about his work as Environmental Curator and the land first-hand.

Walks will take place on January 11, March 29, September 13, and at our 9th annual FORESTival on November 16. BYO picnic lunch at noon, walk will begin at 1pm.
