Inspiring – and Surprising – Schoodic Science for a Changing World

June 11 @ 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm

A crowded auditorium at Schoodic Institute listens to a presenter, standing at a podium. Overlaid is the Schoodic Institute logo artwork, depicting a stylized re-imagining of trees and ocean waves, with text that reads: 2024 Summer Lecture Series.

Schoodic Institute scientists measure, map, and monitor environmental change at Schoodic Point, throughout Acadia, and beyond. On Tuesday, June 11, at 7:00pm, join us for an evening of short stories about how we study the rapidly changing world around us, what we are learning, and the chances we all have to contribute. There will be a few surprises along the way, and opportunities to test your own knowledge of local ecology.
