The Green Room

Sparking conversations about language, nature, and imagination

Recently:

Dr. Bill Baker in The Green Room (Online Broadcast)

In January, The Merwin Conservancy held its first “Green Room” arts and ecology event of the year,  with renowned botanist and Merwin Conservancy researcher-in-residence Dr. Bill Baker. Hosted at the historic Hui Noʻeau Visual Arts Center on Maui, this special event featured Billʻs important work with a team of researchers to complete the tree of life for flowering plants— an evolutionary roadmap that is essential for the exploration of the properties of life on Earth.

Mahalo to Anne Swayne Kier and the Keith and Judy Swayne Fund for generously supporting the 10th year of this program as a Green Room Host.
