Ever wondered what rainbow fire
looks like? Or just what exactly elephant toothpaste is? We like to show off
our mad scientist skills during Chem Demos every Friday at 11:30 a.m., so
things might be set on fire, there could be small-scale explosions, but don’t
worry, you’ll be watching it all happen from a safe distance…there will be
time to both “ooh!” and “ahh!” as we explore many feats of
science. It’s fair to say these visual demonstrations are an absolute gas. 

Immediately following the Chem
Demo from 12-1 p.m., your family can participate in various chemistry
experiments! Enjoy hands-on activities safe for a wide variety of ages like
making slime and ooblek, writing hidden messages, or making your own groovy
lava lamp. Materials are available on a first come, first served basis, but
your RSVP’s to the event help us prepare for the number of guests each Friday.

Access to Chemistry Corner is
included with general admission pricing.

$10 adults/$8 seniors/$8 kids/Kids
2 and under are free

Our Chemistry Corners are
sponsored in part by Cumulus Media

Methodology

The course aims to explain the legal and compliance background to risk management, before considering in a non-mathematical way the core principles and processes of managing risk. Case studies will be used and the emphasis of the course is on developing a comprehensive understanding of the subject and its terminology. This is an online course using the following techniques:
• Lecture and class discussion.
• Analysis of selected corporate case studies.
• Description of real-life case examples.

Hazard identification and risk assessment plays a pivotal role regarding managing risks associated with workplace and process safety. They form the foundation for process safety management activities. Once hazards have been identified and associated risks assessed, the acceptability of the risk can be judged. It is critical that risk assessment are carried out with the relevant expertise and knowledge of process safety requirements because inaccurate assessments leads to vulnerability.

Join us for this special planetarium where we’ll explore Eastern European
folklore and legends behind the stars. The people of Slavic Europe viewed the
stars and planets as magical, living creatures that were born glimmering. They
named these celestial bodies after characters from their mythology and
folklore. During this special, family-friendly planetarium show, you’ll learn
stories from many Slavic countries, including Poland, Russia, Belarus,
Macedonia, Serbia, and the Ukraine. You’ll see a dazzling display of Slavic
constellations and learn about the brave czars and clever princesses who
outsmarted dangerous monsters and villains. You’ll also learn a few tricks on
how to escape from the infamous witch, Baba Yaga.

Our Planetarium is an inflatable dome. Guests sit on cushions on the floor
of the planetarium to view the show. Space is limited, and purchasing tickets
in advance is highly recommended for this reason. On Planetarium Nights,
please arrive at least 10 minutes before your scheduled showing. In case of
no-shows/late shows: reserved spots will be released at show time to  make
space for the next party.

Shows begin at 6 and 7 pm and last approximately 45 minutes.

At a time when the future of American democracy is under threat from across the political spectrum — when a disturbingly high number of citizens seem to no longer believe in the American project — Dr. Allen’s body of work “thrillingly affirms the continuing relevance of America’s founding text, ultimately revealing what democracy actually means and what it asks of us.” Part democracy’s orator and part its master mechanic, Dr. Allen is uniquely equipped to guide us to the other side of our current crisis of faith in democracy.

This important conversation is offered in partnership with Florida Humanities and will be facilitated by Dr. Nashid Madyun, their executive director. We thank The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation for their generous support of this program and the Pulitzer Prizes for their partnership.

Dr. Allen’s contributions to this moment in history are tangible and impactful — she recently co-chaired the comprehensive report Our Common Purpose: Reinventing American Democracy for the 21st Century.

Find Danielle Allen’s piece “How the Declaration of Independence Offers a Roadmap to a Better Union” in the Spring 2020 “Democracy Edition” of Forum Magazine (begins on page 22). Pick up a copy of “Our Declaration” and join us on September 30th for an important conversation about our future you won’t soon forget. If you’re in Tallahassee, visit Midtown Reader and mention The Village Square and received 10% off your purchase.

Online trolls and political disinformation. Cancel culture and Twitter pile-ons. We’re living in a time when truth itself is under perpetual assault by growing numbers of our fellow citizens (and more than a few Russian bots) who simply don’t want to believe anything that they — well — didn’t already want to believe. This rising tide of illiberalism from across the political spectrum has many of us yammering on until we turn blue about respectful disagreement and the marketplace of ideas.

But, what if defenders of truth are missing the most fundamental conceptual revolution at the very core of this American experiment and the enlightenment — of western civilization itself? Jonathan Rauch connects our past to our present challenge as he introduces us to “The Constitution of Knowledge” — the extraordinary system of how we flawed humans gain knowledge that scales and endures. Rauch argues we must know the constitution of knowledge exists if we are to have any hope of defending it.

This frame-shifting conversation is offered in partnership with Florida Humanities as a part of a multi-year series “Unum: America Reignited,” exploring the past, present and future of the American idea — as it exists on paper, in the hearts of our people, and as it manifests in our lives. We thank The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation for their generous support of this program and the Pulitzer Prizes for their partnership.

Rauch, one of the most brilliant minds of our time, was the first to see the culture shift against free speech that has now overtaken American college campuses — which he captured prophetically in Kindly Inquisitors: The New Attacks on Free Thought (written way back in 1995). Similarly, you will feel the ground shift under your feet as you come to understand how we know what we know, and the extraordinary gift of a system for finding truth that is the very center of gravity of the world we live in. This is Jon’s 2nd visit to The Village Square — catch our last conversation with him in 2016 on “Free Speech (in the age of political correctness and bad manners)” here.

Pick up a copy of “The Constitution of Knowledge: A Defense of Truth” and join us on November 4th for an important conversation you won’t soon forget. If you’re in Tallahassee, visit Midtown Reader and mention The Village Square to receive a 15% discount off your purchase.

How often do you have the opportunity to sit around the table with your business peers – people who have been in your shoes and who have critical feedback and perspective to share? Vistage groups are purpose-built solely to help members improve the performance and outcomes of their businesses. They are often the only place CEOs and business owners have to turn for confidential, agenda-free advice.

Join us for this CEO Summit to hear from international keynote speaker, Frank Furness. In this presentation Frank shares advanced strategies that will give your company the tools for the modern salesperson to prospect and connect more effectively, sell more and retain key clients. You will also get a chance to hear more about the CE group and the power of the Vistage process to support better leaders, better decisions, and better results.

Studer Community Institute’s mission is to improve the quality of life in our community. By helping businesses improve their organizations and the skillsets of their workforce, we are also helping business grow jobs and retain top talent.

EntreCon® started as a two-day conference for entrepreneurs in 2015. SCI founder Quint Studer had the vision to bring a high-end conference for business owners at an affordable price to the Gulf Coast. It didn’t seem right that a small business owner had to travel to big cities like Atlanta or New York to be inspired by fresh ideas and learn the latest tactics and strategies for success, so we brought it to Pensacola.

Over the last four years, the community has transformed EntreCon® into a conference for not just entrepreneurs, but for business owners, leaders and employees alike. EntreCon® provides attendees with a front-row seat to both local and national speakers, practical knowledge and tools, and first-class networking within our community.

Be a part of the movement: Let’s create great places to work together.
