Café Scientifique Twin Ports

A Deep Dive into SCUBA at Great Lakes Aquarium

Thursday, January 8th
6:00 p.m. – 9:00 p.m.

Great Lakes Aquarium is excited to partner with Café Scientifique Twin Ports on a free, after-hours, deep dive into SCUBA! This month’s installment will focus on diving the Great Lakes, exploring local shipwrecks, how to get into diving locally, and barriers facing female divers today (and how to circumvent them).

Café Scientifique Twin Ports is a volunteer-run community organization dedicated to creating a more curious, informed, and collaborative society through free monthly public discussions in science, technology, and more. Check out their Facebook page for more information!
