Memorials & Celebrations of Life

When the time comes to plan a celebration of life for someone you’ve loved, you will find warmth and sensitivity at our nature center. Surrounded by woods and meadows, ponds and prairies, and lovely views atop the bluffs of Lake Michigan, Schlitz Audubon offers a sense of serenity and beauty throughout the seasons.

We understand that every memorial is unique and meaningful, and it means a great deal to us to ensure that we assist you in making it special. We have many amenities that will help make your special person’s celebration of life beautiful and vibrant. This includes amenities to help tell his or her story through a slideshow or a photo gallery. We can offer food, bar service, flowers, and music. Sometimes attendees will invite guests to walk in the woods as part of the celebration or have a quiet moment, music, or a eulogy read on one of our boardwalks spanning our ponds. You can also choose to memorialize your loved one by planting an adopted tree near our trails, installing an honorary bench, or naming a beautiful space in our Bluff Pavilion Courtyard.

If you are considering Schlitz Audubon Nature Center as place to host a celebration of life, we would be pleased to speak with you. Please contact Bridget Carlson at bcarlson@schlitzaudubon.org.
