Public Afternoons at the Hutchinson Suite

The Richard W. Hutchinson Geoscience Collaborative Suite has a public afternoon at the suite once a month. The next public afternoon is:

Science Rendezvous

Saturday, May 11th 2024 from 2pm-9pm at Western University's Alumni Stadium

For the month of May, instead of having a public afternoon, the Richard W. Hutchinson Geoscience Collaborative Suite will be taking part in Science Rendezvous 2024 at Western University's Alumni Stadium. 

From the Science Rendezvous UWO website:

"Western University will host their seventh Science Rendezvous event on Saturday, May 11th, 2024 from 2-9 p.m. at Western University’s Alumni Stadium!

Science Rendezvous is a nation-wide initiative, which organizes an annual all day festival that brings science out of the labs and into the community. It occurs simultaneously at over 40 sites across 30 Canadian cities with a goal to increase visibility of, and public interest in science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics (S.T.E.A.M.) fields.

Come and visit our 30+ unique displays of S.T.E.A.M., including demonstrations, stage shows, interactive demonstrations, build-and-take-home projects, and more!

Science Rendezvous is an all-ages, fun-filled, and free-of-cost event led by Western University’s budding scientists. We hope to see you there!"

Join us at the Earth Sciences booth, titled "Ancient Art", to take part in prehistoric painting with mineral pigments, sand art, and fossil rubbings!

 

Please do not come to the Hutchinson Suite on May 11th, as we will be running our booth at Science Rendezvous at Alumni Stadium on campus. For more information, please visit https://sciencerendezvous.uwo.ca/. We hope to see you there!

For future events held at the Hutchinson Suite, please use our exterior entrance from the North Campus Building parking lot, next to the black sign for the "Richard W. Hutchinson Geoscience Collaborative Suite".

If you require an accessible entrance, please enter through the front doors of the North Campus Building and come around to room 120, at the back of the building on the main floor.
