On Saturday and Sunday, people can catch "Diving in Ice and Smashing Bugs," a recent episode of Great Lakes Now from Detroit PBS.

This month's episode features a team of divers and scientists working to uncover what happens beneath the ice, investigating how changing winters are affecting our lakes. Then, travel to upstate New York, where specially treated trees could help slow the spread of invasive spotted lanternflies.

The Great Lakes Maritime Heritage Center is open:

Monday to Friday: 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Saturday: 10 a.m. to 5 p..m

Sunday: noon to 5p.m.

The last weekend of every month is a "Great Lakes Now weekend" where we show the latest episode from Great Lakes Now, a product of Detroit PBS.

This is a free event open to all. The episode will play in the theater all weekend while the Great Lakes Maritime Heritage Center is open. The center is always free of admission and offers 10,000 square feet of exhibit space to explore.
