Inexpensive, Educational and Fun!

Posted by: Karin Hoffman, Communications

Looking for something to do tonight? Come to the Burke Museum and listen to local photographer Paul Bannick talk about the adventures behind his amazing wildlife photos featured in his book The Owl and the Woodpecker: Encounters with North America’s Most Iconic Birds. Starting at 7 pm tonight Bannick will share some of the fascinating stories behind collecting these photographs, many of which were captured while kayaking, snowshoeing or hiking around the Pacific Northwest. Tickets are still available - $5 at the door and FREE for Burke members!

If your dance card is full for tonight, then check out the second lecture offered in our Lucy Talks series tomorrow night at Pacific Science Center (Eames Auditorium.) Dr. Katherine Taylor, a forensic anthropologist with the King County Medical Examiner Office, will present “Looking Through Time: How modern methods are shedding new light on old bones.” Dr. Taylor will discuss how advancements in the science of forensic anthropology inform the study of ancient hominids. Tickets are $5 at the door and FREE for Burke members!
