WUGA

WHEN: Friday, September 19, 2025
TIME: 6:30p - 8pm
WHERE: The Pavilion lawn at Sandy Creek Nature Center

Whether it's sitting around a campfire or huddled around a radio, listening to stories together is a human tradition as old as time. It's also something we don't get a chance to do very often anymore.

That's why we've created this opportunity for us all to ditch our screens and spend a Fall evening outside together at Sandy Creek Nature Center!

Join us Friday, September 19th for OFFSCREEN: a FREE WUGA community listening event. Bring a picnic, spread out on the grass, and spend time listening to live music from Cicada Rhythm and stories of This American Life.

King of Pops will be on-site selling popsicles and we'll have free popcorn!

PLEASE NOTE:

  • No smoking or vaping allowed on the property.
  • No alcohol is allowed in the park.
  • No open fires or grills.
  • Dogs must be on a leash and under control.
  • Leave no trace - attendees are expected to leave the grounds in the same condition they found it. Trash cans will be provided.
  • No tampering with the natural landscape.
  • Do not disturb, harass, harm, trap or remove any living creature or creature habitats in the park.

IN THE EVENT OF INCLEMENT WEATHER, THIS EVENT WILL BE CANCELLED. PLEASE CHECK WUGA'S INSTAGRAM FOR UPDATES.
