Early Spring: Henry Thoreau and Climate Change

Post by Caroline Polgar and Richard Primack

Over the past few years Primack Lab members have been collaborating with folks from the Concord Museum on an exhibit showcasing our work in Concord over the past 10 years, as well as historical artifacts focused on the long history of natural observation in Concord.  After years of planning, brainstorming, and meetings, followed by several months of intense preparation, we are pleased to announce that the exhibit is now officially open!

On April 11 the museum hosted a fabulous party to celebrate the opening of the exhibition. The party was well attended, and many of the notable contributors to the exhibit were there. The exhibit will be open until September 15th, so if you are in the area make sure to stop by and check it out!

There have been a number of articles about the exhibit in the press, with more expected in the next few weeks.  Below is a link to a Boston Globe area that came out a few weeks ago.
