Our Monthly Forums are on the 3rd Wednesday of each month, at 6:30pm and feature presentations followed by discussion. The events are always free and open to the general public. Browse the topics and notes from past forum events!
Join us for our June Forum where several established “women in green” will take the stage to talk about the myriad paths that lead them to where they are now in the sustainable field. The only catch is, the presentation will be Pecha Kucha format, where each presenter is allowed 20 images, each shown for 20 seconds – that’s six minutes and forty seconds of fast-paced enlightenment before the next presenter is up! If you enjoy being entertained, enlightened and inspired, this forum is for you, so register today!
