Where: Waukegan History Museum at the Carnegie, 1 N. Sheridan Rd., Waukegan

What: At Ease in Nature: Nature Holds Our Stories brings together artists with a U.S. military connection to explore the ways nature can hold memory, witness personal experience, and offer space for reflection and healing. Presented by Brushwood Center, the exhibition brings together artwork, photography, and personal narratives from current service members, veterans, and their immediate family members and caregivers. These works reflect the many ways relationships with the natural world can shape stories of service, transition, resilience, family, and belonging. For more information or to RSVP: click here.
