We are buzzing with excitement about the Entomological Society of America Conference that’s happening November 16-19, 2014 in Portland Oregon. As part of the festivities we will be hosting an afterparty at Floating World on Tuesday November 18th, featuring speakers from the conference and a Q&A about making educational comics by Dr. Ainsley Seago.
