In celebration of our exhibition “Examining the Eye: Medicine’s Oldest Speciality” come and meet some amazing animals up close and see for yourself some of the incredible adaptations found in the animal kingdom when it comes to vision.
What do Meerkats and professional athletes have in common? Do snakes have eyelids? Which of our animals have horizontal pupils? Come along and find out for yourself with close encounters of the furry and scaly kind, and others in between.
This workshop is suitable for children aged 7yrs-16yrs. Each ticket admits one child with one accompanying adult. Children must be accompanied by an adult for the duration of the workshop.
