Community Bear Stories will be held in the Mendocino County Museum Wonacott Room and Courtyard, Friday, July 29 from 6:00 – 8:00 pm.

Come enjoy some s’mores and an evening of bear stories with guest storytellers, including Susan Snyder, author of Bear in Mind: The Story of the California Grizzly. Also joining us is Laura L. Smith, who has been a Mendocino County resident for 40 years, dedicating 20 of those years as a Federal Park Ranger at Lake Mendocino, where she has had many positive black bear encounters to share.

After our featured storytellers, community members are invited to share their own bear tales, poems, or songs. Please limit time to 10 minutes or less.

This event is free to the public, open to all ages, and is sponsored by the Friends of the Mendocino County Museum and Mendocino County Museum.
