Tonight online, a Loscon favorite, Tim Griffin!

Join award-winning science bard and geek rock star Tim Griffin for an hour of wacky (but peer-reviewed) songs about physics, civics, psychics, solar cycles (say all that three times fast) and that weird stain on the lab floor while we promote the Two Bit Circus Foundation’s mission to keep the STEAM learning going for kids in Los Angeles county.

Starts at 8pm, stream online from Kulak’s website.

The show is FREE; donations to the Two Bit Circus Foundation are welcome but not required. See you there!

Created by Paul Kulak in 1999, Kulak’s Woodshed evolved into a community labor of love, operated by skilled volunteers and supported by audience donations. All are welcome, any age, and music styles. Self serve snacks, soft drinks, tea, and coffee. Pet friendly. No drugs or alcohol permitted.
