Grand Prairie Bird Alliance volunteer workday – let’s clean up Sugar Creek!

Did you know that you can see bluebirds, woodpeckers, and so many other birds at the Illinois Art Station? This charming property at 101 E. Vernon includes a nice little forested area adjacent to Sugar Creek, making it the perfect place for birds to meet their every day needs – native seeds to eat, tree cavities for shelter, and a creek for water. Windy weather has resulted in quite a bit of litter accumulating along the creek, so help Grand Prairie Bird Alliance clean it up! The birds deserve better. Grand Prairie Bird Alliance will even provide hot chocolate. As a bonus, the clean-up will correspond with the Art Station’s monthly free art hours, so you can get inside to warm up and do some art as well! All are welcome. No skill required.

When: Saturday, January 24 between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m.

Where: Illinois Art Station, 101 E. Vernon (ADA accessible parking off Vernon at the main entrance; additional parking off Linden right near the creek)
