DOAS: Made in Your Community
At Dreams of a Scientist we want to show you that anyone can be a scientist! Made in Your Community, a project sponsored by the Skype a Scientist IRL grant and led by Angelique Allen and Bridget Vincent, is doing that by introducing communities to the science that is done by their neighbor, their friend's friend, or the person next to them in line at a brewery or coffee shop. To share both the research and the scientists who are making these discoveries, we are creating two sided prints that you can find in local coffee shops and breweries. On the front side of the print we are combining scientific images with art to highlight a marine animal, and on the back side we are highlighting the local scientist and their work on said animal.
Are you a scientist who wants to work with us to create prints that you can spread throughout your local community (where you were born/grew up/call home)? Fill out this google form: https://forms.gle/8MByFKBYDaCLA42T8
Are you a coffee shop or brewery in the following areas that wants to help us spread local science? Send us an email at dreams.of.a.scientist@gmail.com with “MYC partner” in the subject line, and we would be happy to drop off or mail some prints to you to give away at your shop.
