Found Objects Event CLEER

"Found Objects" Exhibit Series
Sundays: Jan. 11, 18 and 25 | 1 to 3 p.m.
What was this object before it washed up on the shore of Lake Erie and how did it get there?
That’s the question posed in "Found Objects," a series inviting children, families and educators to examine real items collected from Lake Erie’s shoreline and help uncover their origins. Each Sunday, we will take a look at different material found in Lake Erie, including metal, plastics and ceramics. 

Displayed for close-up inspection in the CLEER education lab, the exhibit encourages speculation, discussion and environmental awareness about how everyday materials can impact local waterways. Tom Benson and Alan Swigonski will be present each week to engage visitors and answer questions.
