Science Friday’s Cephalopod Movie Night

Three hearts, eight arms, can’t lose. Cephalopod Week is back with Science Friday’s annual celebration of these amazing creatures, from the cunning cuttlefish, to the superb squid, to the outstanding octopus!

Join Science Friday and Capital Public Radio for an evening of talk, tentacles, and talent, featuring four original short films from Science Friday, followed by conversations with cephalopod experts, performances, activities, and other ceph-tastic fun. Don’t be afraid to be shellfish—get your tickets before someone with four times as many arms grabs them first!

All aboard the squid train! Science Friday is teaming up with Capital Public Radio and the California State Railroad Museum for an evening full of jet propulsion and locomotion. Join hosts Ezra David Romero from Capital Public Radio and Danielle Dana from Science Friday for a cinematic evening of cephalopods. After the screenings of short science film documentaries, Richard Ross from the Steinhart Aquarium will invite us to his Secret Home Lab, where he has been caring for octopuses for almost 10 years. Find out what it takes to raise and care for these dynamic creatures.
