ENVIRONMENT: Joyce joins with The Field Museum to present Water (June 17 – September 20, 2009)

The Joyce Foundation is pleased to support Water, an exhibit that highlights the importance of Earth's most vital and scarce resource. Visitors will examine how living things adapt to extremes of wet and dry environments, and learn how human behavior alters precious aquatic ecosystems.

Conservation efforts from around the world will be featured and families will discover what they can do to protect and conserve our planet's water. In addition, the exhibit will feature real Chicagoans who are taking action to protect the Great Lakes. The Joyce Foundation encourages everyone to learn more about life's essential element: water.
