Come join Rookery gallery artist Kristen Westlake on "A Walk Through Wisconsin ... and Maybe a Little Beyond."

This won't be a strenuous walk. And you needn't worry about the weather. If you want you can even pick up a cocktail at the bar to carry along.

To start things off Kristen will lead you through her gallery here at the Rookery one image at a time, telling the stories and techniques behind each of her stunning canvas images. Afterwards you'll adjourn to our private dining room for a slideshow and discussion featuring more of Kristen's fine art photography.

You can take this special "walk" with Kristen next Friday or Saturday afternoon (October 11 or 12). It will be a unique opportunity to visit with and learn from one of Wisconsin's most noted nature photographers. There's no charge other than for optional cocktails and/or dinner. However, space is limited so advance reservations are required (715-794-2062).

The walk with Kristen begins at 4 PM both days. Dinner (if you choose) will be served at approximately 5:30 PM. Order in advance or when you arrive.

Autumn Hours

The Rookery will continue to be open 7 nights for dinner thru Monday, October 14. Beginning October 15 we'll be open 5 nights (closed Tuesday and Wednesday).

Our Saturday lunch service is over for the season, as is our Sunday patio grill menu and live outdoor music. But mark your calendars now. Because the fun begins anew on Sunday, June 15, 2014!
