In honour of Earth Day, join us at Barn Hammer Brewing Company on April 25, 2017, to hear Manitobans explain why fresh water matters so much to them.
Our presenters, in lively three-minute presentations, will explain why water is so vital for what they do. They will explore why water matters to the art scene, local business, our agricultural sector, and our history, as well as what traditional knowledge reveals about our relationship to water.
Quick, snappy and to the point—strictly no PowerPoints will be allowed!
For the rest of the evening, you can mingle with the presenters, ask questions, share your thoughts and enjoy one of water’s greatest gifts to us: cold, locally-brewed beer.
Date and time: 6:30 to 9:30 p.m., Tuesday, April 25, 2017 (just after Earth Day)
Location: Barn Hammer Brewing Company, 595 Wall Street, Winnipeg
