A new Out and About series of music, conversation and community throughout the seasons
JACKSON, Wyo. — Teton Science Schools and the Murie Ranch are stepping beyond their summer traditions and into the rhythm of the full year with a new offering: Front Porch: Out & About.
This fresh extension of the popular Front Porch Concerts & Conversations series brings the spirit of the Murie Ranch to venues across the Jackson Hole valley — not just in the summer, and not just on the Ranch. Throughout fall, winter and spring, Out & About events create space for meaningful dialogue, live music and inspiring storytelling in settings as varied and dynamic as the seasons themselves.
Whether gathered around a campfire, seated in a community hall or tucked into a scenic corner of the valley, each event invites connection, rooted in the Murie legacy of conservation, curiosity and place.
