Join us for a hands-on stewardship day focused on removing invasive honeysuckle and restoring the health of our local woodlands. Amur and bush honeysuckle may look harmless, but they spread aggressively, forming dense thickets that crowd out native wildflowers and tree seedlings. By leafing out earlier in the spring and holding leaves later into the fall, honeysuckle shades the forest floor and disrupts the natural balance that native plants and wildlife depend on.

The Harlan Hubbard Studio and Preserve, a National Historic Preservation site, was built by Harlan Hubbard in the 1930’s. The studio sits on a half acre of preserved woodland in the center of Fort Thomas Kentucky. It is not open to the public except during special Open House days.

The Harlan Hubbard Studio and Preserve invites you to a special visit with art collector and David Hausrath, owner of Cincinnati Art Galleries.

David will share works from his personal collection of Harlan Hubbard’s art and talk with visitors about how his admiration for Hubbard began, the stories behind the pieces, and how his collection has grown over the years.

This is a rare opportunity to experience privately owned Hubbard works up close and to hear firsthand from a passionate collector whose connection to Hubbard’s art continues to deepen over time. Anyone interested in Hubbard’s life, art, and legacy will not want to miss this special event.
