You could be forgiven for mistaking the Great Lakes for oceans. Many of us have made memories on the beaches—but there’s so much more to learn about our huge inland seas. Michigan Public reporters traveled to Lake Huron, Lake Michigan, Lake Erie, Lake Superior, and Lake Ontario to learn more about the freshwater giants surrounding our state, and they’re here to share their discoveries.
Join Senior Environment Reporter Kate Furby and the Beyond the Shore podcast team as they discuss what they learned about what makes each lake so special and why it will take communities across the Great Lakes region to ensure they stay great for generations to come. They’ll also discuss the makings of the limited series podcast Beyond The Shore.
You can attend this event in-person or watch from home via livestream. Tickets are free, but in-person space is limited, so reserve your tickets now. Register Here.
