The Spirit of John Muir! Live at Gettysburg

October 29, 2016 @ 3:30 pm - 4:30 pm

Free

The public is invited to a special performance of John Muir Live!, portrayed by award winning performer Lee Stetson. Stetson brings to life iconic author, adventurer and environmental advocate John Muir as he celebrates the 100th anniversary of the National Park Service. Follow in Muir’s footsteps as he retraces some of his grandest adventures in California and beyond, from Mount Shasta, where he spent a “perilous night” simultaneously freezing in a blizzard and boiling in hot springs; to Yosemite Valley, where he climbed a 500-foot ice cone and rode an avalanche down a canyon wall. Muir’s experiences bring to life the National Park story and speak to the preservation of not only our wilderness and natural parks, but our battlefields and historic sites as well.

Seating is limited and on a first-come, first-serve basis.
