The Prairie Wetlands Laboratory is an outdoor classroom located on the northeastern edge of the 1,100-acre shortgrass prairie preserve. The site features gathering spaces, shade shelters, and a bird blind designed for school programs, citizen science, and community wildlife viewing.
The selected sculpture should invite visitors to engage with the prairie wetland landscape and reflect on connections among water, land, wildlife, and people. Artists are encouraged to draw from their own cultural knowledge and artistic practice to address themes such as water, observation, seasonal change, migration, renewal, reciprocity, and and stewardship.
