STEAM: Petri Dish Art

Learn about bacteria and the environment it needs to grow! Look at bacteria under a magnifying glass or zoomy microscope, then create your own Petri Dish art! Use your memory and creativity to create what you saw: was the bacteria fuzzy; what colours did you see; what shapes did it create, circle shapes or squares; does your bacteria have arms or a fuzzy texture; is it made up of lines and shapes; is the environment wet or dry, etc.

All programs are included in general admission and are free for members. Admission can be purchased in advance online or by walk-in at our front desk!
