The Fibonacci sequence (1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13...) shows up in pinecones, sunflowers, seashells and spirals all around us. On Monday, November 23, we're celebrating it with food, art and hands-on fun for all ages at the Bernice Garden.
Free from 4 to 8 p.m.: Enjoy free spiral snacks and Fibonacci math activities hosted by the UA Little Rock math department and local schools.
