50 años de Woodswoman: Vida y legado de Anne LaBastille
The Adirondack Experience hosted a special multi-day series celebrating the 50th anniversary of Anne LaBastille’s landmark book, Leñadora.
This event series offered an in-depth exploration of the legendary wildlife ecologist, writer, and conservationist through the eyes of those who knew her and those who have studied her enduring impact. Highlighted by author and ADKX Exhibit Assistant Penny Harr—who presented on her forthcoming biography, Anne LaBastille: Biografía de la leñadora—the programming invited guests to participate in a variety of immersive experiences, including:
-
Behind-the-Scenes Tours: Exclusive access to the ADKX library collections and LaBastille’s reconstructed cabin.
-
Guided Paddle: An excursion on Twitchell Lake to the remote site where her original cabin once stood.
-
Book Signing: A meet-and-greet and signing with Penny Harr.
-
Anniversary Panel Discussion: An insightful conversation featuring Harr, Leslie Surprenant (executor of LaBastille’s estate), and moderator Nathalie Thill of the Adirondack Center for Writing.
