Join us for Learning from the Land, a professional development conference that invites educators to reconnect with the diverse natural and cultural landscapes of Southern California. Hosted by the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County, ASM Public Archaeology, and the Theodore Payne Foundation for Wild Flowers and Native Plants, this unique gathering centers teachers as learners, exploring the interconnections between ecology, culture, and place. Through hands-on workshops, outdoor experiences, and interdisciplinary sessions, educators will engage with topics such as cultural connection to the land, native plant conservation, and place-based education. Participants will gain practical tools, build confidence in teaching environmental and cultural topics, and forge meaningful connections with peers across institutions and disciplines. Rooted in trust, community, and curiosity, Learning from the Land empowers educators to inspire the next generation of environmental stewards and reimagine how we teach about the land we call home.
