Designed with a "Night at the Museum" feel, there will be an hour of book discussion paired with 30 minutes of interactive learning to bring the book to life. Each month, an expert from FHSU will use artifacts from the Sternberg Museum or information from their research to reveal science and history that connect to that month's book.
