– IN PERSON at the Greely Community Centre, 1448 Meadow Drive, Greely
– $5.00 guest fee OR purchase your 2024 membership for $15.00
Our Speaker for this meeting is Rob Brandon, who has been our guest numerous times. He will talk to us on the Wildflowers and Minoan Civilization of Crete.
– This talk is based on a springtime two week visit to the Greek island of Crete.
– There are 1700 species of flowers that are endemic to Crete and, due to excellent weather, the fields and mountain slopes had a fine display of wildflowers which will be shown in the presentation.
– In addition, it was a small group visit led by two archaeologists with a focus on the history of the civilizations that were established on the island. The Minoan society, which flourished between 2000 and 1450 BC, was very accomplished in many art forms and advanced in its society which will be explored.
