Natural Treasures of Milwaukee: Before the Brewers, there were Brachiopods 

Join us for the 2nd annual ‘Natural Treasures’ evening event, hosted by the Department of Geosciences, to see and learn about the Thomas A. Greene Geological Collection, the only International Geoheritage Geo-Collection in the Western Hemisphere. The evening will include keynote presentations by Rob Graziano and Dr. Don Mikulic followed by public tours of the full collection storage. This is the only time during the year where Greene’s full collection will be open to the public.

Keynote presentations on Greene’s collection and urban geology in Milwaukee begin at 6 PM. Small tour groups will be guided down to the collections following the presentations. Hors d’oeuvres will be provided before and after presentations.

All donations will go directly to the Thomas A. Greene Geological Museum fund, to support outreach efforts and collection digitization, permitting long-term preservation of this important scientific resource. RSVP HERE
