Art Lab: Collage a Chromosome is a free 90-minute art and science workshop for ages 7-15. Attendees will use collage to create images of chromosomes. While you work, you will hear from scientists at the Carl R. Woese Institute for Genomic Biology about how they image and study chromosomes and how they encode life. Our artist and scientist team will be there to guide you through creating these stunning images. Registered attendees will take home their collage supplies at the end of the workshop! This program is sponsored in part by an Urbana Arts and Culture Grant.
