The Darwin Day Celebration started with one event in 1995.  Last year there were more than 850 Darwin Day events world-wide.  Darwin Day festivities have included debates, lectures, essay contests, film festivals, museum exhibits, art shows and even an ‘Evolution Banquet’ with ‘Primordial Soup’ followed by a ‘Darwin Fish Fry’.

Locally, we will celebrate Darwin Day 2012 with a presentation by Eleanor Stone, of Manx Wildlife Trust, “Manx Basking Shark Watch”.
