Ever wanted to transform wildlife forensics into wearable art?

Join us to explore the treasures hidden inside owl pellets. Then turn your discoveries into bone jewelry!

In this hands-on work shop we will dive into the science of owl pellets and use diagnostic charts to identify your skeletal finds. Once your dissection is complete, you will learn how to clean the bones and incorporate them into unique custom creations. We will have jewelry making supplies including wire, hooks, and beads available. Instructors will be on hand to help you as you work. And everyone will receive a pair of pre-cleaned, pre-drilled muskrat jaws to jumpstart your designs!

Enjoy sparkling water, tea, and cocoa as you work!
