Join us for an experimental photography workshop led by local artist and scientist Jess Holz, where you'll create "paintings" of local plankton.


Using microscopes and chrono-photography, capture photos of the trails created by these microscopic creatures. Learn about microscopic pond life while getting a fascinating glimpse into their dynamic behavior, such as the helical paths of flagellates and the water currents generated by rotifers as they feed.
