Step into the Tropics: An Evening to Celebrate Tropical Forest Research

Transport yourself to the tropics with an evening celebrating tropical forests, headlined by Dr. Lúcia Lohmann, Missouri Botanical Garden’s new president and director.

Join LEC for an evening celebrating the tropical forest research and conservation efforts happening in Saint Louis! Kick off the night at a welcome reception, where you can mingle with leading researchers from WashU, the Saint Louis Zoo, and the Missouri Botanical Garden while enjoying refreshments. Learn more about tropical forest ecosystem projects and connect with experts shaping the future of conservation. RSVP today to reserve a spot for you and a guest!

Following the reception, Dr. Lúcia Lohmann, a world-renowned botanist and conservation leader who officially joined the Garden as its eighth president earlier this month, will deliver a talk on tropical forests.

Whether you’re a dedicated conservationist, a lifelong learner, or simply looking to escape the winter chill with an evening in the Garden, this event promises a night of discovery about how Saint Louis organizations are supporting global tropical forest conservation.
