Zoolab:
'not so' creepy critters!

Interactive Animal Handling & Making Sessions

ZooLab are back and hosting a hands-on Animal Explorers workshop at Compton Verney in August!

Get up close and hands on with REAL live creatures guided by an expert ZooLab Ranger.

To celebrate our Louise Bourgeois: Nature Study exhibition and newly installed Spider sculpture in the grounds, the rangers will be exploring why we find some animals so creepy. Expect stories of slime, poisons, venom and poo!

This session includes a creative making activity inspired by our new exhibition.
