Public Programming
Geology at the Edge hosts free, public programming from every year from Spring to Fall - including walks, talks, and workshops for kids. Thank you to all who participated this year - we can’t wait to see you again in June 2019.
2018 Program Highlights: From artistic workshops, to informative hikes and talks, we learned about everything from kite-building to supervolcanoes in 2018. We welcomed geologists-in-residence Suzanne Nacha, Jane Wynne, Jack Botsford, Leonard Stöckl, and Peter Croal, as well as our second summer student, Maggie Whelan. Some geologists were returning to Fogo Island, and others were brand new. Scroll down to view just a few snapshots our year.
