    Come join ATXSciComm as we play some Texas Nature Trivia! 

    Here is the event description from TLC: 

    TLC is partnering with Devils River Conservancy (DRC) to bring you a special edition of Texas Nature Trivia! This event celebrates TLC's permanent protection of the 4,423-acre Agave Canyons Ranch, located in the Devils River watershed—home to one of the most pristine rivers in Texas. We’re excited to have our friends from DRC host a special trivia round and share fun and fascinating insights about the Devils River.

    Focusing on all things nature, groups of up to four individuals will compete for top-notch prizes while enjoying craft beer and celebrating this amazingly diverse state! And guess what?! Even if you don’t win a prize, you will go home knowing you supported a great cause because The Brewtorium will be donating $1 for every beer you buy to TLC during the event.

    $6 per person | $20 per group

    Come hungry, because The Brewtorium has a full menu, including German influences like flammkuchen (German-style pizza), mac and beer cheese, and bratwurst dishes. There are also pub classics like burgers, french fries, and salads.

    1pm – 2pm
    Social Hour and Check In
    Make sure you’re ready to test your nature knowledge and grab yourself a delicious pint before the games begin.

    2pm Trivia Begins!
    Let’s see how well you know your Texas nature.

    Please RSVP so we'll know how many people to expect and can update you with any changes:

    The Boilerplate:
    You can join us live and in person, or watch the show stream on Twitch.
    We're delighted to be bringing you the show from Barrel O' Fun in the Alamo Drafthouse Mueller. Menu, map, parking info and more on the Barrel website at https://drafthouse.com/austin/theater-bar/mueller. The venue is open from 4:00 pm to 10:30 pm. As always, Nerd Nite Austin is free, so arrive early to get a good seat. Grab a drink, order some food, tip your servers, and enjoy the show!
    Talks may not be given in the order listed. There will be an intermission between the speakers. There will be volunteer trainee ASL interpreters at the show.
    If you want to, you can RSVP to our Facebook event, just show up, or watch on our Twitch stream... which will eventually end up posted on our YouTube! Keep an eye on our website and our Facebook, Bluesky, Threads, and Instagram accounts, too. You can also add it to your Google Calendar.
    Since COVID-19 hasn't gone away (and getting the cold/flu/crud/measles isn't fun, either), we ask that you stay home if you aren't feeling well or have had a known exposure. We also encourage vaccination and frequent testing. Mask-wearing nerds are welcome.
