Earth Day is celebrated on Aprill 22 each year, but we'll be honoring Earth Day all month long! 

If you are curious about the world around you and want to connect with others, consider joining the fun on iNaturalist in preparation for City Nature Challenge 2021 (April 30- May 9).

Using paper, string, and tape you can make a Monarch Butterfly Kite. Join National Park Service Ranger Rebecca Au and Price Sheppy from the Parks Conservancy as they take you step by step through building your own kite to fly on Earth Day!

Take an art walk on the wild side! For the month of April 2021, the Mill Valley Arts Commission is taking their Virtual Art Walk to the parks by presenting “Casual in Nature,” a series of local wildlife images. 

Chris Lehnertz has a long history of leadership in the National Parks Service before taking on the helm at the Golden Gate National Parks Conservancy nearly 2 years ago. We invite you to meet and get to know Chris and hear about how the Parks Conservancy and the Parks have weathered the pandemic, and what our 2.0 focus for the future looks like!

If you enjoy exploring nature in Marin, you’ll want to know all about this special species of frogs that need our help.

Join field biologists Katie Smith of the National Park Service and David Harelson and Jonathan Young from the Presidio Trust for a fascinating look at the habits and habitats of the coyotes that live and migrate through our National Park sites.

The Crissy Field Center is a dynamic hub of youth engagement for the Golden Gate National Parks, empowering new generations of youth participants who traditionally have had little-to-no access to national parks to become bold leaders. The renovated Center at the Presidio Tunnel Tops will be expanded to increase program capacity and include two new labs and classrooms. 

Ramadan Eid is soon approaching, and our Muslim friends across the world will be celebrating Eid on Thursday, May 13th. While we can’t be together in the parks this year, we invite you for a small virtual gathering and celebration with a book reading of Fatima’s Great Outdoors written by Ambreen Tariq, founder of @BrownPeopleCamping. This is a family-friendly program and will be interactive, so come prepared to share your fabulous and fun camping stories!
