Thank you again for agreeing to join us for Sea Level Rise and Extreme Precipitation: Preparing for Boston’s Uncertain Future at the Museum of Science, Boston on Sunday, June 11, 2017.

Below you will find an agenda and links to survey, documents, direction and transportation information. It is very important that you arrive no later than 8:30AM, so the program can begin promptly at 9AM. We will begin at 9:00 am in the planetarium and then move to the Skyline Room. There will be signs and volunteers to direct you.
