SUMMARY:Science Cocktail Party 2019
DESCRIPTION:Come to the most science-y fundraiser of the year! Meet science enthusiasts from all over Chicago and share stories over delicious food and drinks\, including our signature “Pop-Rock Cocktail\,” which you’ll only find here! Also\, check out our raffle prizes\, plus very cool hands-on science experiments\, including three all new ones! We guarantee a wonderful and wondrous time for all. \nYou will absolutely be talking about this party afterward!  \n  \nSpecial THANKS to our sponsors\, including: \n        \n      \n For information on being a sponsor\, contact Monica at mmetzler@IllinoisScience.org. \n  \nSCIENCE COCKTAIL FAQs \nThis is a 21+ event. \nAttire – Cocktail party but weather appropriate.  Meaning\, if you want to wear your cute party dress or cool new shirt – fantastic. But if it’s rainy cold and you can’t imagine changing out of flannel-lined jeans and a wooly sweater\, that’s fine with us! Just no snuggies\, please. Ditch boots at the door – the drinks and conversation will warm you right up! \nPublic Transit – Easy! Event is right across the street from southeast doors of Merchandise Mart. CTA brown line stops on 2nd level of the Mart. (Tip – there is no down escalator in the Mart; use stairs next to ATMs outside CTA turnstiles.) Or\, the #156 LaSalle bus stops one block east at 320 LaSalle. Follow the narrow sidewalk on the north side of the building west toward Wells\, then turn left. For other options\, check TransitChicago. \nDinner before? – If you want a special dinner before the party\, there are lots of great restaurants in the River North area. Nearby options include: River Roast or Chicago Cut Steakhouse on LaSalle; or Moe’s Cantina or Highline on Kinzie\, or Prime & Provisions just across the river. For many more options\, and reservations\, try here. \nHandicap accessible – Yes\, DIRTT  is accessible. \nPrinted tickets – Don’t print out tickets; it wastes paper. Provide your name\, and guest name(s)\, with your ticket purchase and we’ll have a complete list at the door. \nBonus Quote – “In this house\, we OBEY the laws of thermodynamics! – Homer Simpson

SUMMARY:Wild Things in the City -- Science of Urban Wildlife with Seth Magle\, PhD
DESCRIPTION:We are not alone! City dwellers are surrounded by wildlife\, both common and rare. \nCome learn about Chicago’s (non-human) wildlife!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWe tend to be well aware of the people around us in our big city (cute person on train\, annoying driver\, gaggle of tourists\, etc.) but there are MANY other individuals around us all the time of the non-human type ranging from small — squirrels\, rats\, rabbits — to large — coyotes\, raptors. We give them little attention until we have a close-up encounter in person or with our property. (Or they don’t belong here\, like alligators or mountain lions!) \nKeeping track of all that wildlife and understanding its behavior is important to our — and their — well-being. Fortunately\, Seth Magle\, PhD\, an animal researcher at the Lincoln Park Zoo and his colleagues are studying these animals. Come learn about the amazing research being done on a wide variety of animals across several cities in addition to our own that can guide our interactions with them and lead to peaceful coexistence. \nThis is an exciting opportunity to learn about the Urban Wildlife Information Network and amazing things about urban wildlife behavior and ecology. As urban areas continue to grow around the world\, understanding biodiversity is critical not just for city planners\, but for all residents of urban areas. \nThere will be plenty of time for Q&A with the speaker so reserve your spot now!
