Photography hike focuses on Tyler Gerth Memorial Photography Contest

September 26, 2024

We were thrilled to have Ayrica Bishop, Photography Educator with Murphy’s Camera, lead a photo hike in Cherokee Park! Participants were delighted to find late blooming plants like white snakeroot, ironweed and sunchoke flowers.

This hike was presented in partnership with Building Equal Bridges INC The Tyler Gerth Foundation! The Tyler Gerth Memorial Photography Contest is open now through December 13 and we hope many who joined us for the hike will enter their amazing photos!

Photography may be submitted to photos@olmstedparks.org. Limit 5 per person.
