Graduate students are also encouraged to present a public lecture on their own research. Many of these talks were originally held at Velo Cult, a former bicycle shop/event space/pub in NE Portland! We pair you with an art student, and you both get unique, useful experience introducing your work to the general public…

FOR ALL OUTREACH PARTICIPANTS:
We are committed to creating and fostering a learning and working environment based on open communication and mutual respect.  We have an extraordinarily diverse K-12 student population, and a diverse community of teachers as well. We expect volunteers to be respectful and welcoming of difference, including differences involving race, color, religion, age, national origin or ancestry, veteran or military status, sex, marital status, pregnancy or parenting status, sexual orientation, gender identity, or disability.  Inappropriate behavior is unacceptable, and will result in removal from NW Noggin activities…

Please help everyone feel valued as full, respected participants in our teaching and learning communities – this is key to successful outreach.
