March 15, 2023

AMES Reads Leopold - in person and online

Join friends and neighbors, Sunday, March 19. 1:30-4:00 pm in the Farwell Auditorium at the Ames Public Library or online for this year’s Ames Reads Leopold event, with featured speaker Neil Hamilton, Former Director of the Drake Agricultural Law Center and Professor Emeritus of Law, will be a featured speaker. Additional speakers/readers will include local high school and Iowa State University students as well as community members. 

Hear the thought-provoking words of Iowa’s own Aldo Leopold, widely acknowledged as the father of wildlife conservation and a strong advocate for a "Land Ethic” in America. Although Leopold's A Sand County Almanac was first published in 1949, his words continue to be as poignant today as then.
