Science on Tap on Thursday July 17 at 6:30 pm at the South Shore Brewery and Tap House. This event is free and open to the public.
Science on Tap is a monthly event where professionals share a presentation about a science related topic followed by an audience Q&A. This month’s presentation is titled A Wilderness Act: Reconsidering Fire in Great Lakes Forests. In this short documentary film titled A Wilderness Act, Indigenous and Western ways of knowing come together through the collaboration of a Anishinaabe scholar and college professor to redefine our understanding of wilderness and argue for the return of fire to our forests. Join us for this special screening followed by a panel discussion with the co-director, co-producer, and stars of the film!
