Event Details

All about 12!   Great for ages 11y+, Teens, and Adults!

Twelve hours on a clock, twelve inches in a foot, twelve donuts in a dozen — why do we measure so many things in 12s?  Join mathematician and Georgetown College professor Dr. Juliana Bukoski, as we learn how to count by 12s, investigate the special mathematical properties of 12, and even discover how those properties relate to the music we listen to every day.
