SUMMARY:Story Cart With Adam Carr - Crystal Quest
DESCRIPTION:Saturday\, February 14\, 10:00am-12:00pm\n\n\n\nThomas A. Greene Geological Museum\, Lapham Hall\, Room 3663209 N. Maryland Ave.\n\n\n\nPart of Darwin Day (10:00am-3:00pm); free and open to the public\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCrystal Quest\n\n\n\nAt the Greene Geological Museum’s Darwin Day celebration\, we’ll ask you to find the mineral that moves you the most. Who knows? Maybe you’ll glean some ancient wisdom from a rock of ages. \n\n\n\nThen\, we’ll ask you to talk about it with Story Fellow Adam Carr while we record your conversation for the Story Cart’s digital archive. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Adam Carr\n\n\n\nAdam  Carr  is an independent writer\, artist\, journalist\, community historian and organizer based in Milwaukee. Carr was director of strategic partnerships at Milwaukee Park Foundation from 2022-2025 and producer at 88Nine RadioMilwaukee from 2008-2011. Working in communities throughout Milwaukee\, his work ranges from journalism to public art\, film/photography to coalition building\, dialogue facilitation to community history\, writing to in-depth tours.   \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Darwin Day\n\n\n\nThomas A. Greene Geological Museum invites you to celebrate Darwin Day\, a public outreach event celebrating the life and times of one of the most brilliant and influential Victorian naturalists\, Charles R. Darwin. Darwin was an avid geologist and biologist who most famously developed the theory of natural selection—one of the driving mechanisms behind biological evolution—published in his seminal work: On the Origin of Species. Today\, this theory forms the foundation for many of our natural sciences. Darwin Day is a national celebration of Darwin’s scientific legacy typically held on (or near) his birthday. \n\n\n\nThis event is free and open to guests of all ages. Many wonderful geological and biological specimens will be available to observe\, with volunteers on hand to explain their fascinating histories. Learning tables will focus on the natural history of Wisconsin and the contributions of the Thomas A. Greene to our understanding of local geology\, with many rare and beautiful samples on display in the Greene Geological Museum. Other activities will be available throughout the day\, including scientific lectures presented by UWM scientists and guest speakers\, coloring and crafts for young kids\, and free planetarium shows. See this activities list and schedule of events for more information. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Story Cart\n\n\n\nStory Cart is a mobile story collection program that travels to community spaces and engages Milwaukeeans in conversations about their lived experiences. Our Story Fellows craft questions related to the current C21 research theme\, record participant responses to those questions\, and add them to our Story Cart digital archive (forthcoming). Supported by the Wisconsin Institute for Citizenship and Civil Dialogue\, Story Cart’s current run introduces Milwaukeeans to practices of radical attention. From September 2025 through May 2026\, our community Story Fellows will lead workshop pop-ups throughout the city and will record discussions with participants about the experience of paying attention.
