We offer our lectures on the 3rd thursday of every month, usually
February through November. We split the lectures between day and
evening events. Sometimes we have more evening lectures but that is
based on what works best for the speaker. Our evening lectures start
at 7pm and usually last about an hour or an hour and a half depending
on topic and questions. The day lectures are limited to an hour
(lunch hour) and start at 11:30am. We do allow guests to visit the
museum after the day lecture and one hour before the evening lecture.
We used to split between Tuesdays and Thursdays but found we get more
people on Thursdays. If you have any questions please feel free to
email me off the list.

> We tend to hold lectures in spring and fall. We've tried Wednesday
