Fungi Workshop - your own experiment with mushrooms!

Experiment with mycelium and gain insight into the fascinating world of fungi and their wide-ranging applications.

You can do artistic research on site and try out various hands-on kits that turn slime molds into colorful giant microbes and sculptures made of mycelium.

Lina Vieres, biologist at Fraunhofer UMSICHT, and artist Mara Sandrock will give you an insight into the fascinating world of fungi in her impulse lecture. They are neither animal nor plant and are used in the most diverse areas of our everyday life: in medicine, in the food industry and in biotechnology, as materials, in fermentation processes and last but not least as intoxicants.

Maximum number of participants: 14
The workshop is for anyone interested, ages 10 to 100+.
