In this creative and scientific activity, you'll get up close with live worms and discover the fascinating anatomy that helps them thrive underground. Learn about their lifecycle and to identify key features and the segmented structure of their muscular bodies.
You'll be invited to observe and draw worms in detail, using art to explore biology. How do they move without legs? What do they eat, and how do they digest it? What role do they play in soil health and composting? Through guided observation and sketching, you'll uncover the answers and gain a new appreciation for these vital recyclers.
This activity is open to all ages and abilities-whether you're a budding biologist, an artist, or just curious about the world beneath your feet. Expect a welcoming, inclusive space where you can get creative, ask questions, and maybe even hold a worm or two!
