Presenters are Bill Baccus, physical science technician for Olympic National Park; Ian Miller, coastal hazards specialist and oceanography instructor at Peninsula College; and Liz Schotman, Washington regional manager for Surfrider Foundation.

Thursday’s event is inspired by the exhibit “Terminus: A Glacier Memorial Project” which is on view at the center through Sept. 3. “We are honored to host a conversation about glaciers, snowpack, and sea levels- connecting our local landscapes to changes around the globe the center said on its website.

The center is open from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Thursdays through Sundays.
