Want to make good on those long forgotten New Year’s resolutions to be a better local/global citizen? Consider trekking down to SFU Woodwards World Art Centre next Thursday for Pollinators + People In The City, a night of presentations co-hosted by SFU’s Vancity Office of Community Engagement and Hives For Humanity. You’ll hear from Professor Mark Winston (author of Bee Time: Lessons from the Hive), wild bee expert Elizabeth Elle, and Sarah Common, the Chief Community Officer/Co-Founder of Hives for Humanity. Top it all off with empowering words from DTES activist Dean Wilson and you’ll likely leave feeling purposeful, renewed, and naturally sweetened (yes, a honey tasting is included).

Thu, March 10 | 6:30pm | SFU Woodwards World Art Centre (149 W Hastings St) | $15 | Tickets
