Join SUNY Cortland and Cornell University lab students to learn about animal science! Participants will have the opportunity to examine the parts of a cow's stomach, manipulate trays and jars of cow feed, examine microorganisms from a cow's digestive fluid under a microscope, put their hands inside a live fistulated Cornell cow, and learn about how making milk production more efficient can reduce our environmental impact and improve food security.  

Master Composters will lead hands-on composting activities to teach about the art and the science of composting at home. All ages welcome – come with your curiosity and any questions!

Join educators from the Johnson Museum of Art as we explore connections between art and science! Create a watercolor resist painting, then see its colors change under red, blue, or yellow light. Create an optical illusion with your own thaumatrope, or explore animation by making a zoetrope strip. Be sure to stroll through the animal room, where we highlight artists who are inspired by the natural world.

Join us to create art using watercolors and crayons while making predictions and observations! We can't wait to see what you create!
