Secret Science Club is diving into Symphony Space for a special event...
Tuesday, May 3, 7:30PM, Secret Science Club (North) presents Marine
Biologist Fernando Bretos @ Symphony
Space, $20 ($15 with code SECRET15)
Ocean currents and ecosystems don’t acknowledge embargoes. Home to endangered manatees, crocodiles,
sea turtles and sharks, Cuba’s
underwater environments are ecological wonders. For two decades, marine biologist Fernando Bretos has worked alongside Cuban biologists, studying the island’s remarkable sea creatures, coral
reefs, and the ocean ecosystems that bind us all together.
At the next Secret Science Club (North), step into liquid with Fernando
Bretos as he dives deep into Cuba’s
underwater world.
Before & After: Grab a rum punch, sway to the sounds of salsa and son,
and stick around for the post-talk Q&A!
Snag tickets for $15 here
with code SECRET15, by phone
at 212.864.5400, or in person at the Symphony Space box office.
Fernando Bretos is director
of the Cuba Marine Research and Conservation Program, curator of ecology at the
Patricia and Phillip Frost Museum of Science in Miami, and director of Trinational Initiative for Marine Science
and Conservation in the Gulf of Mexico and Western Caribbean, a program to restore coastal and marine resources shared by Cuba, Mexico and the
United States. For over 15 years, he has worked in Cuba on marine biodiversity
expeditions, coral reef health assessments and research on green sea
turtles. He was a featured scientist on CNN’s The Wonder List and the
award-winning PBS documentary, Cuba:
The Accidental Eden.
