This workshop is led by Microbiologist, 5x TED/TEDx speaker, Maine native, and recent recipient of National Geographic’s Wayfinder Award, Dr. Anne A. Madden! It offers the opportunity to gain an in depth tour of the museum’s special exhibit, “Microbes and Mushrooms: Nature’s Artistry in Detail,” while getting an awe-filled introduction to the basics of beneficial microbes and mushrooms. Following this introduction, there will be access to various science-art stations, along with guided instruction on techniques, allowing participants to see, handle, and create with microbes in new ways. There will be plenty of time to ask questions, meet your fellow crafters, and indulge in plenty of wonder.

Details:
During this roughly two-hour workshop, participants will be able to participate in the following activities:

-  Use a microscope and capture a digital photo of your own microscopic landscape with the help of award-winning science-artist Tracy Debenport (visit her work at @under.the.scope on Instagram to see examples). Your photo will be sent to you following the class.

 - Generate your own “agar art,” by painting with living baking yeast on petri plates. One week later, you’ll be sent a link to photos of your artwork after it has grown.

 -  Learn about ongoing microbial research efforts related to amphibian conservation, and then contribute to these efforts by using microbe-dyed fabric to create a mixed media square to the world’s largest participatory bioart work, “Purple Partnerships.”



Refund Policy:

Due to the limited spaces and perishable nature of some of the supplies, this class is non-refundable. Thank you for your understanding.

Signs of the Christmas Season
Format: Hardcover
Written in a lyrical format, AND THEN COMES CHRISTMAS is a children's book that illustrates various signals that lead up to the Christmas holiday. It begins with changes of the weather and includes cutting paper snowflakes, hanging colored lights, elves and Santa Claus in stores, looking for a Christmas tree, holiday concerts, making and wrapping gifts, and various other activities. The illustrations are warm and joyful and feature a bi-racial family. AND THEN COMES CHRISTMAS makes a good book to read in mid-November and early December to children.

It Should be Read by Parents and Children Together
Format: Hardcover
I will always remember that when I was a child, I read Manners Can be Fun by Munro Leaf with my mother. When I found out that 4 of his books, including Reading Can be Fun, were still available I hunted them down. As a parent and psychologist, married to a teacher, I believe that all parents should read this book, as well as the others, with their children at an early age instead of letting them watch TV unattended. It worked with my children. It is an investment well worth the time.

Love them all!
Format: Hardcover
My son has long loved the story of Ferdinand (as have I), so I was delighted to be pointed to these books, now back in print. My son is impatient to read, and reading this aloud to him has been wonderful...For him to think of the places he'll go, and the friends he will meet and share with others is magical. All within books. I highly recommend!

Reading can be fun.
Format: Hardcover
I particularly like Munro Leaf's book on reading, which was written for young children to either read or be read to. The logic of choosing good things to read to develop the mind ( as compared to exercise for the body to develop) is a basic concept in the book. The stick figures are fun and mirror the text well.
