Winging It: A Brief History of Humanity’s Relationship with Birds PRIVATE EXHIBIT TOUR – REGISTRATION REQUIRED @ Newberry Library | Chicago | Illinois | United States

The Newberry Library has just opened a temporary exhibit called Winging It: A Brief History of Humanity’s Relationship with Birds that collates illustrations, woodblock prints and other media from the Newberry’s collection to demonstrate how birds in Europe and the Americas have persisted through the centuries – often despite human interference. This private tour by local birder, filmmaker and library communications director Bob Dolgan, who curated the exhibit, is open exclusively to Lake/Cook members with a maximum attendance of 15. Email renabird3@gmail.com to register for a digital lottery that will be held in early July to select attendees. Winners will be selected at random through a digital app. Lake/Cook membership is required to participate in the lottery. Please attend ONLY if you receive an email confirmation.
