Humans use a lot of materials.  In many ways, figuring out how materials found in nature has been hugely beneficial for us - our modern technology wouldn’t be possible without a few simple minerals under the ground we stand on!  On the other hand, we’re realizing that many of these materials aren’t being used smartly and responsibly.

Where do our materials come from, and will they last forever?  We’ll do some interactive activities in this JAM that will show you how understanding these basic ideas can help you to be better informed about our natural resources.

Tickets go on sale 9:00 am 8/24/24
