Discover architecture and design through playful, hands-on building challenges.
About this Event

In this hands-on workshop, young designers become eco-architects, blending creativity with science to make a building in which living plants can survive and thrive. Participants will investigate essential plant requirements, light, water, air, warmth, and space, and apply principles of environmental science and structural design to create a custom home for a sunflower.
They will learn how plant biology intersects with sustainable architecture, sketch their ideas, and build supportive structures that mimic real-world eco-design solutions.

This workshop encourages curiosity, critical thinking, and innovation as participants explore how science and architecture can work together to protect and nurture life.

This workshop is strictly for 7-8 year-olds.

Refunds can only be issued for tickets cancelled at least two weeks (14 calendar days) in advance of the event date. Please note that this supersedes our normal event terms and conditions.
