WHAT: Noggin Tuesdays @ p:ear!

We did it! Day one of four at the link…

“He LOVES this” – Noggin @ p:ear

WHERE: p:ear, 338 NW 6th Ave., Portland, OR 97209

WHEN: Tuesday, April 24, 2018, 9:30 – 11:30am

Noggin is returning to P:ear, a remarkable Portland organization aimed at building positive relationships with homeless and transitional youth through education, art and recreation to affirm their personal worth and help them create more meaningful and healthier lives…

DAY ONE: We’re busy cutting out plywood brain regions using a new Maslow CNC router…that we’ll then paint at p:ear based on what these regions do!

We are excited to communicate science through the extraordinary volunteer efforts of our talented graduate and undergraduate Noggin participants from Portland State University, Oregon Health & Science University, the Pacific Northwest College of Art, and other collaborators.!

Learning about the brain, and behavior, and the evidence-based structural and functional aspects of who we are is powerful and actionable information for everyone, including young people struggling, like many, with anxiety, depression, drugs, chronic stress  –  and poverty, isolation, racism, homophobia, lack of affordable housing and other factors that can impact development.
