Location
This year’s ComSHER field trip is to the 110-year-old Denver Museum of Nature and Science, where we will meet with some of the programming staff to hear about their efforts to keep the Denver community excited about and engaged with science. The four‑story museum is 2.5 miles from the conference and we will travel there and back by city bus. The museum has a range of programs and exhibits for children and adults, an extensive permanent collection, and several traveling exhibits. The museum is also home to a planetarium and IMAX theater. ComSHER field trips are popular, so sign up early. Register here to receive discounted ticket prices. Questions? Contact John Besley.
