Conservancy Calendar

One of the best ways of connecting with Yosemite is to experience it on a deeper level.  This could be as simple as learning something new while visiting an exhibit or discovering a different part of the park while on an organized group backpacking trip.

Our range of programs and events will suit everyone and all seasons,  for example, art workshops and theater in the summer, birdwatching or snowshoeing in the winter. 

Check out the comprehensive calendar below for all Yosemite Conservancy events and programs. Additionally, be sure to check out Outdoor Adventures for the latest information on our seasonal programs.
