Yosemite Institute provides a 45-60 minute program each evening.  At these programs you may learn about a wide variety of topics, including: bears, bats, mountain lions, climbing and mountaineering expeditions, or what it means to be a naturalist.

You may go on a hike on which you discover the world of the night through astronomy, Native American legends, and nocturnal habits of the park's animals. 

Interactive programs might involve you in debates about important park issues, the creation of myths and legends, and games that allow you to share what you have learned. 

Campfires are usually held on the last night of the program. These are often the favorite of all evening programs. You might get to participate in skits about your week at YI, sing songs, tell and listen to stories, and play games.
