Alas, the time has come to say goodbye to July. But, before we do, we can't help but indulge ourselves with the dessert of the month one last time. And take full advantage of all the summer sample sales. And maybe even do a good deed or two. Heck, if August turns out to be anything like this past month has been, we're in for a treat.

Get the scoop.
July is almost over, which means ice cream month is almost over. Before the end, discover the science behind your favorite summer treat. Stef Ferrari, founder of Hay Rosie, will be on hand at STORY NYC tonight to provide the scoop on all things ice cream.

When: Monday, July 28 from 6 to 8 p.m.
Where: STORY NYC, 144 Tenth Avenue, at 19th Street; 212-242-4853.
