Anchorage Science Pub

Anchorage Science Pub Informally informing the public about relevant science topics. Interested in being a presenter? Email us at [email protected].

The Anchorage Science Pub (ASP) offers short, informal talks from a variety of presenters concerning different scientific topics, followed by a question and answer session. The ASP was created to educate the public on subjects that they might not normally hear about. We meet monthly at the Tap Root Public House in Spenard. All our events are free, but we do hope that attendees give a donation to h

elp us promote and buy needed supplies. All the ASP committee members are volunteers; we work hard to keep the Anchorage Science Pub professional and entertaining. Joining the group will enable to you to keep updated on the newest pubs! Our meetup is the event there is no formal group at the day of the event.

Hello all, gauging interest on how many people would like to see Anchorage Science Pub start back up again?

We were thinking of contacting 49th State Brewing, to see if they would be willing to let us hold it there again.

So make a comment, and let us know if you would like to see start this up again. Also, if you are able to volunteer and help, that would be great, so let us know that as well.

Everyone, thank you for your continued interest in Anchorage Science Pub. We have decided to postpone the Winter 2021/2022 season until January, 2022, due to the continued pandemic and being uncertain about restrictions/mandates in the near future. We miss you and want to provide an in-person experience with the opportunity to participate and socialize. We will plan on resuming in January for now and re-evaluate prior. Our volunteers are keeping ASP alive and ready for the time we can hold an event in person again.

Hi all ASP followers, we are trying to promote Sunday’s Live Pub, but we’ve run into some technical issues with the advertising feature. To this end, Alaska EPSCoR has also created the same event in parallel and is promoting it. We are leaving the event up for anyone that saw it here and comes back for the Zoom link. Hope to see you there! https://fb.me/e/2auTOdNXX

Due to the global pandemic, Anchorage Science Pub has decided to hold virtual Pub events through December, 2020. At that time we will reevaluate and determine whether we can hold in-person events for the rest of the season. We are sorry about this and will miss you and hope you are all staying safe!

Virtual events will be from a library of videos of prior Anchorage Science Pub presentations, announced on Facebook and MeetUp, and available on YouTube so that you can listen to them at your convenience. We will attempt to reach the original presenter to see if they are able to answer questions posted below the video. We encourage you to order take out or delivery food from our usual host, 49th State Brewery, enjoy a refreshing (hopefully local) beverage, and learn some science! Please stay tuned for announcements in the following weeks. We look forward to seeing everyone in the future.-ASP
