The opening day of the "Roots of Wisdom: Native Knowledge, Shared Science" exhibit at the Powerhouse Science Center will take place from 9 to 4 on Saturday, September 17th. The exhibit will then be on display through the end of the year. Details are at powsci.org

In Roots of Wisdom, stories from four indigenous communities are brought to life in real-world examples of how traditional knowledge and Western science combine to provide complementary solutions to contemporary concerns. From restoring ecosystems to rediscovering traditional foods and crafts, Roots of Wisdom helps visitors understand the important issues facing indigenous communities, discover innovative ways native peoples are solving challenges, and strengthen the growing movement towards sustainability and the reclamation of age-old practices.
