The Poetry Night Reading Series is proud to welcome Wendy Silk, Tony Dumas, and the Science Singers on Thursday, March 15th at 8 P.M. They will be performing at the John Natsoulas Gallery at 521 1st Street.
Wendy Silk and the Science Singers is a group formed as a result of the UC Davis arts and science fusion program which created the course “Science and Society 42: Earth, Water, Science, and Song.” The course is taught by scientist and Professor Wendy Silk along with musician and doctoral candidate Tony Dumas. The class writes and performs a variety of different musical genres; everything from rap ballads to smooth acoustic guitar serenades. Their songs convey their understanding of the class material and include lyrics that communicate such topics as the scientific method, the hydrologic, carbon and nitrogen cycles, soil, groundwater, rivers, and spatial and temporal variation.
Attendees are encouraged to arrive early at the John Natsoulas Gallery to secure a seat, and to sign up for a spot on the Open Mic list. The Poetry Night Reading Series, organized and hosted by Andy Jones and produced by Pia Baur, occurs on the first and third Thursday of every month at the John Natsoulas Gallery.
