NEWS FLASH

The Discovery Center is pleased to announce a sign-up for our first MEET THE AUTHOR event (the first of our planned Meet the Author Series).   We are pleased to be hosting author, consultant and 2014 Michigan Teacher of the Year, Gary Abud.  Gary will be bringing copies of his book; Science with Scarlet: What Color Will it Be?

Book copies will be available for sale and author signing and will be sold for $25 hard cover and $15 Paperback.  15% of all book sales is being donated by Gary to Eversight; a non-profit organization that provides human eye tissue for transplantation, supports research into the causes and cures of blinding eye conditions; promotes donation awareness through public and professional education; and provides humanitarian aid to people around the world in need of sight-restoring therapies.

This event is scheduled for 12/3/2022 and will create an awesome and rare opportunity for your Christmas shopping.  The event will have a $2 attendance fee ($1 for each eye in attendance) with all proceeds from this fee being donated directly to Eversight.

Gary will bring some hands-on science demos and experiments to do with the group, conduct a book reading and speak (as well as autograph books).  We are planning on offering free eyesight screening by the Mt. Clemens Lions Club during this event.

Gary has graciously sponsored this event at the $500 level and we are seeking four additional $500 sponsors to match this donation in support of our programs and operations.

Please add your name to our sign-up if this program interests you.  Please contact me personally if you want to sponsor this event or if you have any questions.  We look forward to seeing you there!
