EVENT DETAILS
Celebrate all the unknowns of the universe with Jorge Cham, Daniel Whiteson, & a profusion of pies to try!
On the most mathematically magical day of the year-Pi Day 3.14-we'll gather in a science-themed clubhouse to explore the universe's greatest unknowns.
This exploratory evening features a fun, interactive presentation about everything thatweDON'T know about the Universe. From the origin of our cosmos, to the dark matter that surrounds us, to time travel - there are strange mysteries that abound. PHD Comics creator Jorge Cham & particle physicist Daniel Whiteson team up to explain everything that we have no idea about-featuringscience & live cartooning.
Noscientific knowledge required, just a sense of curiosity, a sense of humor, & room in your stomach! Because no Pi Day celebration would be complete without a taste of pie, there will be a buffet featuring a variety of inspired desserts. A Pi Recitation Contest will follow the presentation, & the attendee with the best memory will be eligible for prizes!

Doors: 7:00
End: 9:00
Tickets: $25
