Pamela Pelletier
I oversee all Outreach programming at the Tree-Ring Lab leading the development and implementation of community educational programming for PreK-12 and university students and planning and implementing new exhibits including art-science collaborations.
My PhD was in Arid Lands Resource Sciences, minoring in Art and Visual Communication Education (AVCE) and Science Journalism. I believe teaching science through visualization, art and creative expression can help members of the public understand science more effectively. My research focus is on novel approaches integrating art and science communication to increase scientific literacy and understanding. I am a strong supporter of diverse social justice practices, equity within Arizona classrooms and STEM opportunities for marginalized communities.
