Habitats workshop for educators set

The North Dakota Game and Fish Department, North Dakota Chapter of the Wildlife Society, and the Bismarck Art and Galleries Association is promoting wildlife conservation and resource management by sponsoring an education workshop for teachers, environmental educators and anyone else who works with youth.

The workshop, “North Dakota Habitats — A Visual Arts Approach,” is scheduled Aug. 19-20 at the Game and Fish Department’s main office in Bismarck. The five North Dakota habitats — wetlands, badlands, prairie, woodlands and riparian — will be studied, with the new North Dakota Studies Habitats curriculum used as textbooks.

Cost is $30 by Aug. 15. Graduate credit is available through the University of North Dakota. To register, call (701) 223-5986 or e-mail baga@midconetwork.com.
