MISSISSIPPI PARK CONNECTION | Park After Dark

Explore Crosby Farm Regional Park’s nocturnal side. Enjoy guided night hikes and discover bats, owls, fireflies and other wildlife that come alive at night. Special lighting will be used to attract an array of moths and other insects.

Learn about Dakota Star Knowledge through augmented reality with Dakota artist Marlena Myles. Visitors will immerse themselves in the Native stories contained in the stars using their cell phones and Adobe Aero.

Enjoy s’mores at a beach bonfire and interact with sounds of the river through Monica Moses Haller’s ongoing work, Listening to the Mississippi, for which she records sounds of the river from below its surface. The sounds include animal, human, machine, and water noises.

This is a drop-in event. Come anytime, stay as long as you’d like. Free parking is available in the Crosby Farm Park parking lot. Meet at the pavilion.

Park After Dark is a partnership project of the City of St. Paul, National Park Service, and Mississippi Park Connection.
