If you happen to live near Storrs, here's an event you may want to attend this evening.
Friday Sept. 18, 2009
7-9 p.m.
Starbucks, Storrs
The human side of Charles Darwin is often lost in discussions of his work. What happened during the 23 years between his voyage on the Beagle and the publication of his seminal book? What was behind his struggles with his new idea? How can his humanity be conveyed through the arts? Join us for an evening of presentations, discussions and exploration. We'll have an introduction from Dr. Salman Hameed from Hampshire College followed by a reading from Timberlake Wertenbaker's "After Darwin" performed by students from the UConn Department of Dramatic Arts. Free coffee will also be available.
For more information, see the Year of Science webpage at http://clas.uconn.edu/yearofscience/index.html or email Mark Peczuh at mark.peczuh@uconn.edu with questions.
This event is sponsored by the UConn Year of Science.
