We’re honoring Black History Month with a brand-new Story Stroll on the lower nature loop at Elm Avenue Park. The featured title, “Mae Among the Stars” by Roda Ahmed, is inspired by the life of the first African American woman to travel in space, Mae Jemison. Head out for some fresh air and enjoy an outdoor story about this amazing woman who reached for the stars and broke down barriers.
