Dr Margo Adler is largely responsible for Hobart’s Beaker Street Festival. An annual showcase of science and art, the event sprung from a failed attempt to open a science-themed pub. Listen as host Robyn Williams talks to Dr Adler about all things science, failure, and fun.
This episode of ABC Radio National’s The Science Show was recorded for Beaker Street.

Beaker Street acknowledges and pays respect to the Tasmanian Aboriginal community as the traditional and original owners, and continuing custodians, of this land on which we come together to discover and share knowledge. Always was, always will be, Aboriginal land.
