Gilbert Smith House Nov 10, 2022 - Mar 5, 2023. The exhibit will feature photographs of Stegner during the time he lived in Los Altos Hills, a collection of first editions and autographed copies of his books, and a reading nook.
The Museum's outdoor exhibit, 'Wallace Stegner: A Path to Conservation,' concentrates on Stegner's work in protecting wild places and preserving the landscape. Visitors stroll the Conservation Pathway around the Museum using QR codes with Smartphones to hear recordings of, and about, Stegner.
