Lakeside Labs - Reflection: A Walk With Water

Feb20
  • Date: February 20, 2022
    Time: 2:00pm
    Location: Figge Art Museum
    225 W 2nd St
    Davenport, IA 52801

The next film in the QC Environmental Film Series Reflection: A Walk With Water, will be shown on Sunday, February 20 at the Figge Art Museum. 
Reckoning with the reality of a changing climate, filmmaker Emmett Brennan walks 200 miles next to the Los Angeles aqueduct in search of a vison for humanity worth living for - what he discovers has everything to do with water.
After the film a talk back with Mary Skopec, Executive Director of Iowa Lakeside Laboratories, will be held. Lakeside Labs is owned by the state of Iowa and operated through the Board of Regents. Its mission is twofold: 1) to provide science classes and research opportunities for university students, and 2) to offer Outreach Programs and provide services through the state universities.

Lakeside's 147-acre campus is located on scenic West Okoboji Lake, on Little Miller's Bay. The bay and adjacent natural areas are used as outdoor classrooms for Lakeside's university courses and Outreach Programs. The campus is open year round, and visitors are welcome to visit during daylight hours.
