LVHRD - "Science & Beauty Pre-Party"

February 28th, 2005 was snowy and cold, but it did not deter LVHRD members from meeting for a prelude to the upcoming "Science vs. Beauty: Battle of the Minds." Members first met uptown to view Tim Hawkinson’s überorgan at The Sculpture Garden (590 Madison Ave @57th St.), then traveled downtown to the Beauty Bar where they donned lab coats and bright ideas, further exploring the concepts of science and beauty.

“Science vs. Beauty: Battle of the Minds” - a live contest of intellectual prowess mocking the notion that brains are boring and models are un-intelligent will take place on Monday March 14th. For more information sign up at www.lvhrd.com.
