The First Friday Forum speaker series provides lectures of importance and interest to help inform the community about this ever-changing world.

The First Friday Forum speaker series provides lectures of importance and interest to help inform the community about this ever-changing world.

The programs are offered at 1:30 pm on the first Friday of the month, January through June, and can be seen in person on the LOPC campus or on the internet.

Our June speaker was Dr. Joe Whitehouse who showed photos from his voyage on the National Geographic ship Endurance.  In his talk you will visit Inuit villages, see polar bears on the ice, explore majestic fjords, and learn about the failed attempts to discover the Northwest Passage. A recording of his talk and other recent programs are available in the archive below.

Preparation for 2024:

The FFF Team is working hard to identify and schedule speakers for 2024. The plan is to move back to the Sanctuary, meet at 1:30 pm, and be available on Livestream or Zoom. The schedule will be posted here in late fall.

There is some interest in serving refreshments before the talk. The team will need volunteers to make this happen.  If you are interested in assisting with refreshments please contact us.
