SUMMARY:The Art and Science of Insect Pinning
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER\n\n\n\n\n\n\nExplore the fascinating world of insects while learning how scientists study and preserve them. In this program\, participants will be introduced to insect and invertebrate research\, including the scientific method of insect pinning. \n\n\n\nYou’ll meet Abbey Crossman\, a coastal ecology researcher with Marine Extension and Georgia Sea Grant\, who studies invertebrates and their vital role in healthy ecosystems. Through real examples from her fieldwork\, you’ll learn how scientists observe\, collect\, and study everyday insects like beetles\, butterflies and grasshoppers. \n\n\n\nParticipants will take part in a guided insect pinning demonstration using paper models\, creating their own museum-style insect displays to take home. \n\n\n\nAll supplies for the craft will be provided. \n\n\n\nRegistration is required. Content is best suited for children ages 7 and up\, but all ages are welcome. Participants under 18 must be accompanied by a registered adult. Tickets are nonrefundable.  \n\n\n\nIf you have questions or need special accommodations for this program\, contact Shannon Matzke at shannon.matzke@uga.edu or call 912-598-2446.

SUMMARY:Sketching the Coast: Nature Journaling Basics
DESCRIPTION:register\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSpend time slowing down and observing the natural world through nature journaling. In this beginner-friendly workshop led by our Artists\, Writers and Scholars recipient Dottie Leatherwood\, participants will learn simple techniques for recording what they see\, hear\, and notice\, from the shape of a tree to the changing light across the marsh. \n\n\n\nNature journaling is a powerful way to connect more deeply with coastal environments by combining art\, observation and curiosity. Through guided prompts and hands-on practice\, you’ll explore how to capture details of the world around you while building your own personal record of place. \n\n\n\nNo artistic experience is required—just a love and curiosity for the natural world. All skill levels are welcome. \n\n\n\nRegistration is required for participants ages 3 and up and includes admission to the UGA Aquarium. Content is best suited for ages 13 and up\, but all ages are welcome. Participants under 18 must be accompanied by a registered adult. Tickets are nonrefundable. \n\n\n\nIf you have questions or need special accommodations for this program\, contact Shannon Matzke at shannon.matzke@uga.edu or call 912-598-2446.
