The mountains and the sea are closer than you may think. Julia Roberson, vice president of communications for the Ocean Conservancy, will discuss their relationship and much more at a special after-hours event at Grandfather Mountain. Her appearance, taking place from 6 to 8 p.m. Thursday, July 19, is part of the Grandfather Presents lecture series. Refreshments will be served until 6:30 p.m., and guests will have the opportunity to talk with Roberson following the presentation.
Admission to Grandfather Presents: Julia Roberson costs $20 for general admission and is free for members of Grandfather Mountain’s Bridge Club. Space is limited, meaning registration is required by emailing judi@grandfather.com or calling (828) 733-2013.
