Suds & Science with The Fleet

  • San Diego Art Institute 1439 El Prado San Diego (map)

Join us as we partner with the Fleet Science Center for Suds & Science during the San Diego Festival of Science and Engineering. Suds & Science is a monthly event by the Fleet that brings scientists face-to-face with the general public in a neighborhood bar. Each session kicks off with a short and enlightening presentation, after which the floor is open for discussion between the audience and the speaker.

For this iteration, Suds & Science will be held at SDAI for a panel discussion about Illumination: 21st Century Interactions with Art & Science & Technology. In this exhibition, 26 artists spin research into art to boost public understanding of contemporary issues and explore solutions, both real and imagined. Two artists and the scientists they were paired with will join us to talk about the art and science behind their collaborations.

Sheena Rae Dowling, Artist
Dr. Olivier George, Scientist, UCSD
Akiko Surai, Artist
Dr. Krishna Vadodaria, Scientist, Salk Institute  

Doors open at 6 P.M. Panel starts at 6:30 P.M.
