SUMMARY:Monarch Tagging at Hopeton Earthworks
DESCRIPTION:Join Park Biologists and Park Rangers Sunday\, September 7th\, to help capture and tag monarch butterflies (Danaus plexippus)! As part of the Monarch Watch program\, Hopewell Culture National Historical Park is helping a nationwide effort to study the amazing migration monarchs undertake every fall. \nNets and free handouts will be provided about butterflies and other wildlife. Make sure to bring water\, sunscreen\, and running shoes- these butterflies are planning to migrate thousands of miles\, so will take you on a great chase at times. Expect to walk and/or run a lot! All participants will need to complete a volunteer form. \nPark staff and volunteers will demonstrate safe and proper techniques for capturing and handling these delicate winged marvels. Once a monarch is carefully captured\, they will receive a tag- which is a specially made sticker placed on their wings. Volunteers and scientists along the migration route throughout the country and Mexico can then easily observe the tag and thereby assist in tracking monarchs to their winter homes and back! \nAt Hopeton Earthworks\, we will be stationed under a tent near the native grasses. Rangers will be waiting to greet you near the entrance to help guide you to the sampling location. \nHopeton Earthworks is located at 990 Hopetown Road\, Chillicothe\, OH 45601. Call the park at 740-774-1126 for more information.

SUMMARY:"River Connections" Student Art Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:“River Connections” is a student art exhibition done in collaboration with the International Fiber Collaborative. Now in our fourth year\, Hopewell Culture National Historical Park collaborates with IFC by composing a theme and IFC sends the theme and materials to participating schools around the country. \nOur theme this year took inspiration from the many rivers that are near earthworks:\nRivers flow near every earthwork constructed by the Native Americans of the Hopewell period 2\,000 years ago. The routines of living—sleeping\, cooking\, gardening\, tool and clothing making\, and child rearing—took place in small settlements near the rivers. The Scioto River\, Paint Creek\, and the north fork of Paint Creek still provide spiritual connections to the earthworks for today’s American Indians. \nThe rivers offered much bounty for the Native Americans: mussels\, fishes\, turtles\, otters\, muskrats\, ducks\, geese\, and large wading birds. Rivers were a ready water source for drinking\, bathing\, and cooking\, and for the game people hunted. The Scioto River and Paint Creek connected with many other rivers and streams\, giving the people a vital link to other communities and distant regions and allowing them to gather to create monumental earthworks on a large scale. \nStudents from schools around the country drew inspiration from this theme\, and connected with our park rangers through Distance Learning to create this year’s student art exhibition. Artwork is on display in the Mound City Group Visitor Center auditorium now through June 22\, 2025 during regular business hours 9am – 4pm\, every day of the week. \nTo learn more call the park at 740-774-1126.

SUMMARY:"River Connections" Student Art Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:“River Connections” is a student art exhibition done in collaboration with the International Fiber Collaborative. Now in our fourth year\, Hopewell Culture National Historical Park collaborates with IFC by composing a theme and IFC sends the theme and materials to participating schools around the country. \nOur theme this year took inspiration from the many rivers that are near earthworks:\nRivers flow near every earthwork constructed by the Native Americans of the Hopewell period 2\,000 years ago. The routines of living—sleeping\, cooking\, gardening\, tool and clothing making\, and child rearing—took place in small settlements near the rivers. The Scioto River\, Paint Creek\, and the north fork of Paint Creek still provide spiritual connections to the earthworks for today’s American Indians. \nThe rivers offered much bounty for the Native Americans: mussels\, fishes\, turtles\, otters\, muskrats\, ducks\, geese\, and large wading birds. Rivers were a ready water source for drinking\, bathing\, and cooking\, and for the game people hunted.

DESCRIPTION:“River Connections” is a student art exhibition done in collaboration with the International Fiber Collaborative. Now in our fourth year\, Hopewell Culture National Historical Park collaborates with IFC by composing a theme and IFC sends the theme and materials to participating schools around the country. \nOur theme this year took inspiration from the many rivers that are near earthworks:\nRivers flow near every earthwork constructed by the Native Americans of the Hopewell period 2\,000 years ago. The routines of living—sleeping\, cooking\, gardening\, tool and clothing making\, and child rearing—took place in small settlements near the rivers. The Scioto River\, Paint Creek\, and the north fork of Paint Creek still provide spiritual connections to the earthworks for today’s American Indians. \nThe rivers offered much bounty for the Native Americans: mussels\, fishes\, turtles\, otters\, muskrats\, ducks\, geese\, and large wading birds. Rivers were a ready water source for drinking\, bathing\, and cooking\, and for the game people hunted. The Scioto River and Paint Creek connected with many other rivers and streams\, giving the people a vital link to other communities and distant regions and allowing them to gather to create monumental earthworks on a large scale. \nStudents from schools around the country drew inspiration from this theme\, and connected with our park rangers through Distance Learning to create this year’s student art exhibition. Artwork is on display in the Mound City Group Visitor Center auditorium now through June 22\, 2025 during regular business hours 9am – 4pm\, every day of the week. \nTo learn more call the park at 740-774-1126.

SUMMARY:"River Connections" Student Art Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:“River Connections” is a student art exhibition done in collaboration with the International Fiber Collaborative. Now in our fourth year\, Hopewell Culture National Historical Park collaborates with IFC by composing a theme and IFC sends the theme and materials to participating schools around the country. \nOur theme this year took inspiration from the many rivers that are near earthworks:\nRivers flow near every earthwork constructed by the Native Americans of the Hopewell period 2\,000 years ago. The routines of living—sleeping\, cooking\, gardening\, tool and clothing making\, and child rearing—took place in small settlements near the rivers. The Scioto River\, Paint Creek\, and the north fork of Paint Creek still provide spiritual connections to the earthworks for today’s American Indians. \nThe rivers offered much bounty for the Native Americans: mussels\, fishes\, turtles\, otters\, muskrats\, ducks\, geese\, and large wading birds. Rivers were a ready water source for drinking\, bathing\, and cooking\, and for the game people hunted. The Scioto River and Paint Creek connected with many other rivers and streams\, giving the people a vital link to other communities and distant regions and allowing them to gather to create monumental earthworks on a large scale. \nStudents from schools around the country drew inspiration from this theme\, and connected with our park rangers through Distance Learning to create this year’s student art exhibition. Artwork is on display in the Mound City Group Visitor Center auditorium now through June 22\, 2025 during regular business hours 9am – 4pm\, every day of the week. \nTo learn more call the park at 740-774-1126.
