SUMMER SCHEDULE

JUNE 8: A BRIEF HISTORY OF TIME
We’ll discuss new ways to explore something we take for granted: Time as the 4th Dimension, how time is measured and why, clocks and the importance of time zones. Learn about the origin of Daylight Savings — yes, it actually was Benjamin Franklin.

JULY 13: LINDBERGH
Charles Augustus Lindbergh — the man who conquered the air in 1927 and the first media superstar of the modern era. Learn about Lindbergh’s life, his family, his impact on the aviation industry and how history remembers him.

AUGUST 10: TEXAS HURRICANES
September 8, 1900 marks the date of the greatest natural disaster in U.S. history. The hurricane that slammed onto Galveston Island is a story of scientific hubris, weather technology, political history, and human resilience, bravery and creativity.
