Taking Nature Black Conference

The Anacostia Watershed Society is proud to be a partner in Audubon Naturalist Society's 2021 Taking Nature Black conference. 

Taking Nature Black is an event, an opportunity, a time to pause for the cause.  It's a regional and national environmental lovefest. And it’s a Black healing, welcoming, organizing, celebrating, networking space. The theme this year  is Call and Response: Elevating our Stories, Naturally!

This year Taking Nature Black is elevating  stories chautauqua-style, so be on the lookout for speakers, creators, innovators, scientists, educators, musicians, artists, and entertainers telling their stories about everything from climate change to environmental justice and environmental joy in highly creative ways.  Including former Anacostia River Hero Akiima Price!

Taking Nature Black 2021 will run for FIVE DAYS, primarily virtually, from Tuesday, February 23nd through Saturday, February 27th, with some select outdoor events that follow governmental guidelines for social distancing.
