We will look at the chemistry within those plants that we use to decorate our homes at this time of year, plus those that feature in our seasonal celebratory feasts whether as food or drink. We will also look at the chemistry of plant products that might help us to get over any seasonal over-indulgence!
Discovery Talk:
Taking place on the second Friday of every month in the Museum’s Discovery Space, the Discovery Talks explore themes from the history of the collections to current zoological research.
13.15-13.45
Suitable for ages 12+
This workshop will take place in the Clore Learning Studio and is open to people of all abilities, no previous experience of performance is needed.
‘Working in a group with common and individual questions we will expand conventional notions about the world. The gap between familiar and unknown will be filled with feeling. By responding to it through movement, participants will be guided to build up the connection between body, consciousness and reality.’ – Sasha Pirogova
