Getting outside and up close to nature is an important part of being a kid. At Fernwood Botanical Garden and Nature Preserve, children are able to get hands on learning through their Pond Study class. The kids aren't just learning about wetlands in a classroom, they're right in the thick of it and finding the various critters who live there.

For students studying art in college, the summer months can often be a time where the creative flow gets put on hold. But some have the chance to keep working on their craft through a summer residency program at the South Bend Museum of Art. Here, they get to use the museum's creative spaces and receive feedback on their works in progress they may not receive while in school.

Terri Russ More Information
In This Segment
It's often said that behind every great man is a great woman. Terri Russ noticed that when people told the story of South Bend's history it was often stories of the men who made it happen, but what she would later learn is that the women of South Bend made an incredible impact for this community as well and their stories deserved to be heard and shared. This resulted in the founding of the Michiana Women Leaders organization, where they work to chronicle, celebrate and recognize the many women who made a difference in our community.
