Description
On the second Wednesday of each month from 7 to 9 pm, South Florida Museum transform the Bishop Planetarium into a forum for discussions at think + drink (science), a place where you can grab a beer or a glass of wine (or a soft drink) and learn about cutting-edge science in a relaxed, informal setting. Typically our "expert du jour" gives a short presentation on the topic of the month, and then opens the floor for questions and discussion. Drinks and bar snacks available for purchase. Feel free to bring food. With 7800 fresh water lakes, 1700 rivers and streams, more than 1000 springs, the Everglades, and one of the most productive aquifer systems in the country Florida is well endowed with water resources. Join Assistant State Geologist Guy "Harley" Means for a meaningful discussion on the state of Florida's prized water resources. This lecture kicks starts a season of water conversations inspired and partly funded through the Florida Humanities Council's 2016 Think Florida, Think Water project initiative. Enjoy refreshments available for purchase. Paid reservations required. Please arrive promptly: Pre-purchased program seats will be held until 5 minutes prior to program start time ONLY, at which time they may be released for re-sale (no refunds or exchanges will be given after the start of the program).
