All About Long Island Crabs: A Science and Art Experience
SUNDAY, JULY 30 · 1 – 3 PM EDT
Join crab experts, Marine Biologist Dr. Jeffrey Levinton, and Marine Biology Ph.D. student Hannah Craft in a discussion about wonders of crabs.
One of the most successful groups of animals, crabs are found all over the world, in the oceans, but also in fresh water, and even sometimes on land. This is a fabulous opportunity to learn about the crabs found on Long Island and have the opportunity to discuss and ask questions with two people who have extensive knowledge of these fascinating creatures.
After the conversation, Join artist Jack Dambrosio in a printmaking workshop to create cards using shells, crab carapaces, and other beach items.
The event is free. If you can afford it, we ask for a $10 donation per person or a $20 donation per family to help support and continue these opportunities. But there is no requirement to do so. Please join us.
