Meet Curator of Birds John Klicka

Why do natural history museums contain specimen collections? Can we really learn something from a bird specimen collected over 30 years ago? Hear from Curator of Birds, John Klicka, as he discusses how museum collections, like the ornithology collection at the Burke, can be used well into the future to inform research, education, and art.

Note: Only one reservation is required per household, but the whole family can gather around to "join" the event.
