Butterfly Preservation Workshop with Margot Magpie

You won't be working on any habitat improvements to save these fluttering creatures – but the butterflies taxidermy artist Margot supplies are ethically sourced. Instead, learn the fascinating art of preserving, handling, setting and pinning dead butterflies. No experience is necessary, everything you will need is supplied, and at the end of the workshop you'll have your own specimen - a butterfly to dry and mount at home.

The workshop is being held (in Frobisher Room 1, Level 4) in conjunction with the Magnificent Obsessions exhibition, to which free entry for the day is included with your workshop ticket.

Note: over-18s only; this promises to be extremely popular - book ahead.
