REMNANTS 2026 at Byrnes

Wender Collective's *REMNANTS* turns a South Deering park into a stage for giant puppets representing the prairies, wetlands, savannas, and woodlands that once covered Chicago. The site-specific performance weaves ecology and history into an evening procession that converges on a central show at dusk, with free native plants and educational materials available at the site. It's an unusual, thoughtful way to spend a Saturday evening, August 29, from 6:00 to 7:30 PM — more encounter than spectacle, and free to attend.
