Science Studio for Homeschoolers: Plant Fossils

About this event

Join us as we travel back in time as paleobotanists to study fossils from ancient plants. Explore how plants become fossils and what fossils can tell us about the past. Use mineral paints to replicate the patterns and colors found in plant fossils. You'll be surprised to find that some fossils are still living today! Science Studio offers families a guided classroom experience to investigate the intersection of art, science and the natural world. Each studio session examines a natural or scientific concept through hands on exploration. After the exploration, be inspired by nature to create using materials related to the program's theme!
