Take a walk through any Natural History Museum and you’ll likely find yourself marveling at a wide diversity of specimens, from bugs to birds to reptiles and beyond. Ever wondered how museum professionals prep and care for these specimens?
Now’s your chance to get hands-on and learn the ropes of spreading and pinning a bird wing. Hang out behind the scenes with Royal Alberta Museum experts in their conservation labs. They’ll share why and how they get these specimens ready for display and research. You’ll also snag a high-res picture of your finished bird wing to take home and show off!
This workshop is open to anyone aged 12 and up, and you don’t need any special skills. Spots are limited, and past workshops sold out quickly so grab your ticket soon.
