Distinguished Professor of Earth Sciences at Pennsylvania State University Brandywine Laura Guertin has turned to a unique medium to connect new audiences with science stories: quilting. Guertin, whose work is featured in CBMM’s exhibition The Changing Chesapeake, will present an overview of climate science, and highlight examples of actions we can take in addressing these changes - all communicated via quilts. These unique pieces of science communication share stories of adaptation and resilience from various regions as well as the larger research initiatives currently underway.
This event is generously sponsored by the Upper Shore Regional Folklife Center.
The Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum’s Speaker Series brings discussion about Chesapeake-related topics to the Van Lennep Auditorium. Events vary, but often include talks by industry experts, discussions with community members, performances by local artists, and screenings of relevant films. Regardless of the topic, each program will leave you with a greater appreciation for the people and environment of the Chesapeake Bay.
