FREE COURSE:

The History of Life Course 

Thursdays starting March 31st at 5:30pm

Every Fall and Spring, the Museum of the Earth at PRI offers a 6-week community education and volunteer training course titled, "The History of Life."  The 2011 Spring course will highlight various staff and volunteer research. This course is free and open to all members of the community and is a great way to learn about the Museum and the information within. Each lecture will begin at 5:30 pm in our museum classroom.


*Please note, this course is taught at a high school to college-level so bringing children is strongly discouraged. The Museum offers a wide variety of other activities specifically designed and more suitable for children.*


For more information please contact Jaime Hazard by sending an email to hazard at museumoftheearth.org.
