The Allurement Salon will feature expressions of research and the natural world through original artwork, including photography, drawing and poetry. Scientists and other members of the W.K. Kellogg Biological Station community have spent the past several months exploring what happens when art and science come together, and this event will showcase the results of that exploration.

The public is invited to this free event, set for 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 7, in the Richland Community Hall, located at 8985 Gull Road, across from the Richland Harding’s Market. 

The Allurement Salon is organized by the KBS Long-term Ecological Research program, which this past spring welcomed its first artist-in-residence, Erin Schneider, a poet, farmer and co-owner of Hilltop Community Farm in La Valle, Wisconsin.

In addition to viewing original art, attendees will have an opportunity to meet artists and other members of the KBS community, enjoy poetry readings, and participate in an on-site collaborative art project.

Great Grounds Coffee Café will provide coffee and espresso, and other refreshments also will be available. RSVPs are encouraged at arts.kbs.lter@kbs.msu.edu.
