Interpretation & Education
The mission of the Interpretive Services is to provide information and offer interpretive experiences with Indiana's natural and cultural resources to visitors, staff and a diverse public.
Featured Programs
Guided hikes, crafts and demonstrations, talks, historic home tours and interpretive center exhibits are at the core of our Interpretive Services. The people who make this happen are our interpretive naturalists. These outdoor educators, first called “nature guides” when the program began in 1923, have been providing Hoosiers with information and interpretive experiences for more than 80 years.
Wilderness Medicine Classes Offered at O'Bannon Woods this Fall
If you would like to learn more about how to provide first aid to the sick or injured when more than one hour from medical care, this workshop might be for you. Situations involving wilderness medicine can include hiking, camping, hunting, and fishing in remote areas, or providing care in an urban environment that has been ravaged by a natural or man-made disaster.
