SUMMARY:OPENING: The Power of Poison
DESCRIPTION:The Power of Poison is a new exhibit at the Museum of Nature and Science that is included with admission. Poison Exhibit Info \nDescription from DMNS website: \nPOISON IN NATURE\nThere is an extraordinary variety of evolutionary strategies among plants and animals that use poison in their struggle to survive. Colombia’s Chocó forest is home to many dangerous inhabitants and is the perfect place to look for adaptations\, ranging from mimicking the colors of deadlier species to lethal partnerships forged between poisonous insects and the plants that provide them with food and shelter. \n\nBecome immersed in a re-creation of the remote Chocó forest. As you wander through the foliage\, see live poison dart frogs\, explore models of venomous insects at three times their normal size\, and find out some of the ways humans have figured out which plants are toxic.\n\nSTORIES OF POISON\nThere was a time when magic—not science—was widely used to explain abnormal behavior\, a time when the lines between poison\, magic\, and disease were often blurred. Not surprisingly\, poisonous plants and other toxins can be found at the core of countless fairy tales\, legends\, and literary works. Some of the most unlikely stories often contain kernels of truth. \n\nEncounter a life-size diorama of a famous scene from Shakespeare’s Macbeth\, featuring a trio of witches surrounding their boiling cauldron and drawing on the magical powers of highly poisonous plants.\n\n\nAnother diorama portrays the story of Snow White. She has eaten a “poisoned apple” and fallen into a deep sleep. In the fairy tale\, she later revives. Is this really possible? Examine some potential scenarios.\n\n\nA scene from the Mad Hatter’s tea party from Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland focuses on how this character’s odd behavior was likely inspired by symptoms of mercury poisoning suffered by workers in the hat-making industry in the 18th and 19th centuries.\n\n\nAdditional displays feature other popular characters whose stories involve poison\, such as Harry Potter\, Sherlock Holmes\, and Lemony Snicket.\n\n\nTurn the pages of the Enchanted Book\, which “magically” reveals the origins and myths of well-known poisonous plant species\, such as belladonna and monkshood.\n\n\nWatch the ancient myths of Hercules and Medea unfold in animations projected onto ceramic pots.\n\nUNDERSTANDING POISON\nSources of illness and death were mysterious for most of human history\, especially if they involved poison\, which was typically difficult to detect. The birth of modern forensics and the emergence of toxicology as a scientific discipline provided new methods for solving criminal cases involving poison. \n\nDuring a live gallery show\, hear the story of a real-world case from the 19th century. See demonstrations that show the chemistry of poison\, and discover how new methods for detecting poison emerged.\n\nPOISON BY ACCIDENT\nPoisoning is not always the result of a criminal action. Accidental poisonings occur to animals and humans. Today’s knowledge of the effect of toxins means that poisonings can usually be treated if they are caught in time. \n\nPlay detective as you explore life-size shadow boxes portraying accidental poisonings. An iPad app guides you as you find clues and solve the puzzling cases. Continue the fun by downloading the free app The Power of Poison: Be a Detective.\n\nPOISON FOR GOOD\nThe field of toxicology was born out of a specific and urgent need—to detect poisons and prevent illness or death. Over the past century\, advances in cellular biology have allowed scientists to discover different ways in which poisons affect human cells and to figure out how to put that power to work restoring human health. \n\nExplore how plant and animal toxins are being studied as sources for new life-saving drugs. Surprises include draculin\, an anticlotting agent in vampire bat saliva that can assist stroke patients.\nEncounter a model of a gigantic yew tree\, which is extremely poisonous but whose bark has proven effective in cancer treatments. Lord Voldemort’s wand in the Harry Potter series is made of yew!

SUMMARY:Pop Up Film on the Side: The Birds (1963)
DESCRIPTION:Hitchcock is even better when it’s projected on the side of a building! See the classic film \, “The Birds” for free in a unique urban outdoor movie theater space on Acoma Plaza (near the west entrance entrance of the Central Library). Seating will be provided\, but you can bring pillows\, blankets and yoga mats if you’d like to sit on the plaza or nearby lawn. Film starts at dusk. \nAbout “The Birds:” See the film that has made us all think twice about the not-so-benign motives of any nearby black bird. “The crows alight\, one by one\, in the schoolyard above Bodega Bay. They are summoned by the nursery rhyme sung by the children\, or drawn by the green glow of Tippi Hedren’s matching skirt and jacket\, or maybe lured by the pungent scent of her lit cigarette. By the time she turns her head\, the climbing frame is thick with them. ‘She combs her hair but once a year\,’ sing the oblivious children inside their classroom. ‘Nickety-nackety now\, now\, now!’” – theguardian.com. 119 minutes. Rated PG-13. \nMore Info: https://www.denverlibrary.org/fresh
