The Tallgrass Prairie in Popular Culture with Cindy Crosby
Discover how the tallgrass prairie – Illinois’ original garden – is a place of inspiration for creatives of all types. Enjoy the work of quilters, painters, musicians, jewelers, filmmakers, writers, sculptors and photographers who share the prairie through their work. Be energized to think about how you can use native prairie plants in your garden as a springboard for creativity, and come away with a new appreciation for our “landscape of home.”
