Explore the intersection of science and writing about the Great Lakes during a science café at 6-9 p.m., Nov. 8, Paradise North Distillery (101 Bay Beach Road, Suite 5) in Green Bay.
“Connections: The Science + Literature of the Great Lakes,” will feature Sally Cole-Misch, author of “The Best Part of Us,” a book that charts the path of a young girl torn between Great Lakes natural history and urban realities. Cole-Misch will be in conversation with Julia Noordyk, Wisconsin Sea Grant water quality and coastal communities outreach specialist.
Cole-Misch’s book is being featured in the Great Lakes, Great Read Program, which is designed to inspire passion and connection to the Great Lakes Watershed through reading. Noordyk and Cole-Misch will be joined for questions and answers by Joanne Robertson, author of “The Water Walker,” the Great Lakes, Great Read children’s book.
Refreshments will be available. Science café sponsors include Wisconsin Sea Grant, the Green Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve designation, McDonald Companies and the Freshwater Collaborative of Wisconsin.
