The Grassland Heritage Foundation’s Rolling Prairie Learning Lab will make several appearances in Lawrence over the next three months.

The learning lab has several exhibits and displays designed to inform the public about native Kansas prairies and prairie conservation. Children can participate in related art projects. Also on display during the stops is a large mobile mural about prairie life designed by Van Go Arts.
