Nature is under threat. Forests are shrinking. Wildlife is losing its home. Many people, especially kids, are growing up without a strong connection to the natural world. This matters because nature supports life, health, and learning.
Schlitz Audubon Nature Center works to protect habitats and teach people about the environment. They run programs for schools, families, and the community. They also care for wildlife and keep natural spaces safe. To support this work, they are hosting a special evening event.
The Schlitz Audubon 2026 Gala will take place on Friday, June 5, 2026 at 5:30 PM. Guests will gather for cocktails on the veranda, enjoy live art, dine in the Great Hall, and take part in auctions. There will also be live raptor appearances and creative displays inspired by nature. This event helps fund education programs, community outreach, and conservation efforts. It helps protect habitats and gives more people a chance to learn about nature.
Get tickets here to support programs that protect wildlife and connect people to nature.

The natural world has amazed humans and provided the subject for our art since the dawn of time. Likewise, since our inception, Schlitz Audubon’s diverse habitats have been an artist’s muse. Painters, sculptors, and photographers have found endless inspiration at the Center through the seasons.
At the Gala, nature and art will come together in a joyful setting complete with live painting, signature cocktails, and exhilarating appearances from the Raptors of Schlitz Audubon. Bid on locally made crafts, arts, and experiences in our silent auction and thrilling live auction, and savor a creative, elevated dinner and hors d’oeuvres.
As a non-profit, we rely on the steadfast generosity of friends like you to bring all our unique programs to life. Proceeds from the Gala will benefit the Center’s education and community programming, and the conservation work that ensures our diverse habitats continue to thrive and inspire.
Registration deadline May 22, limited tickets available.
