Events:

Mushroom Maynia!
Sunday, May 2, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Burke Museum

The third annual Mushroom Maynia! will be Sunday, May 2, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Burke Museum on the UW campus. This is a fun, one-day event to raise awareness of the role of fungi in our lives and world. Mushroom Maynia! needs volunteers to help with displays and activities. These will include family-oriented cultivation workshops, art activities, and a variety of displays to introduce the public to the Kingdom of Fungi. Volunteers with all levels of mushroom expertise are needed, including beginners. Mycology is intimately connected to the study of forestry, botany, ecology, medicine, and the culinary arts. It is the goal of the Daniel E. Stuntz Memorial Foundation and PSMS to keep these connections alive by supporting the study of the natural science of mushrooms. Mushroom Maynia! is made possible by the Daniel E. Stuntz Memorial Foundation and volunteers of the Puget Sound Mycological Society. Please save the date and, if you wish to join in the fun, contact Joanne Young at mushroommaynia@psms.org.
