Lately, we've been having tons of conversations with all types of science communicators. The common pain point: money 💰 A lot of projects fade out, and a lot of scicommers quit because of a lack of funds. We're working to change that. Join our sprouting community 🌱 #SciComm #SciArt

GNSI 2025 Visual SciComm Conference Feature: One of our Thursday, July 17 field trips will be a 4-hour fishing trip in Duxbury Bay, which has some of the best Striped Bass fishing the region has to offer. Enjoy being out on the water & learning about (and catching!) some local fish.
