What’s On

Step into the hidden worlds of nature with biologist and artist Tasneem Khan in this immersive microscopy and photography workshop. We’ll begin with a short nature walk, collecting textures and tiny treasures such as leaves, lichen, stones, and found fragments that often escape the naked eye. Back in the Learning Centre, participants will zoom in and out of these discoveries using a range of tools including tabletop microscopes, clip-on phone lenses, and macro photography.

Learn how to capture the elegant patterns of cells, the architecture of moss, and the abstract beauty of microscopic landscapes.

Bring your own smartphone or camera to experiment with framing, focus, and light as we explore new ways of seeing the familiar.

No previous experience is required, just curiosity and a sense of wonder. Leave with striking images, fresh skills, and a renewed appreciation for the extraordinary.
