Dye-ing for Fashion
“Fast fashion” has become a mainstream topic, but how much do you actually know about what you wear? In this interactive workshop, learn about the toxic dyes in most apparel items and how to avoid them.
PLUS: Bring a 100% cotton shirt to practice dyeing your own clothing at home with vegetables!
Insects: Where Have They All Gone?
BUGS! EWWW! That's the reaction when most of us think of insects. But, these little powerhouses keep our planet running. Join us to learn how insects can even help fight invaders. Get to know and love your insects with some help from MSU Entomology Professor Ernest Delfosse. Fun for the whole family!
A Healthy Environment: Is It Our Right or Privilege?
Pure water, clean air, healthy environment - all rights we used to take for granted in our country. Unlike free speech or free assembly, these very basic rights are NOT enshrined in our constitution. One very energetic and determined woman is on a mission to change that - one state at a time. We are pleased to welcome, from her home in Pennsylvania, Maya VanRossum, author and founder of Green Amendments for the Generations, to talk about the movement in Michigan.
Go Green! Trivia Night
