Blue Paradox at the Griffin Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago

The Blue Paradox is a powerful, immersive experience taking you below the ocean’s surface to explore the impact plastic pollution has had on our planet’s largest ecosystem. The paradox? Our use of plastic in daily life has led modern society to advances and convenience, but also to one of our planet’s biggest pollution issues. The problem can be overcome, but it will first take our awareness and then our resolution to take action.

TOUR FAQ

Will you provide transportation to LRS?
Yes, we will have a shuttle bus to transport participants from the hotel to the tour site

Can I signup before I've purchased a ticket to secure my spot?
No, unfortunately the tour is only open to registered attendees. Filling out the form will not reserve your spot to the tour if you have not purchased a ticket, as your purchase will be verified before acceptance.

Can I still apply even after the deadline?
Yes, but your spot is not guaranteed and you will only get to attend if someone already on the list cannot. We encourage you to fill out the form above as soon as you've purchased your conference ticket to ensure you secure your spot.

What if I leave something on the shuttle bus or at the tour site? 
There will NOT be secure storage available for personal belongings on site, guests can leave their belongings on the shuttle as the driver will not leave the bus, however in all cases Smithers and the site are not responsible for lost or stolen items, or any injuries occurred on site.
