Celebrate Earth Month at Oxy and join the Moore Lab of Zoology and Vantuna Research Group for a natural history collection open house!
Natural history collections offer a wealth of information. They serve as a place to view and discover nature, explore the histories of the specimens or a collection of species, and inspire scientific questions that are significant to conservation.
Take a self-guided, exploratory tour of the world's largest Mexican bird collection and a fish collection that was founded in the 70s. All ages welcome.
When: Friday, April 5, 10AM to 12PM* / RSVP on Eventbrite
