National Science Week - Every Stone has a story
For National Science Week 2025, we are Decoding the Universe from the Ground Up. A presentation that communicates, through nature’s treasures, the special connection that can be enjoyed when one pays attention to the stones that are all around us, and can mean so much, if we take the time to appreciate them. Encompassing a wide variety of nature’s wonders - from crystals, birthstones, gemstones, to meteorites from Mars and beyond and stone tools of evolution – Mark Greenwood’s Every Stone has a Story presentation is a pathway to discovery. Target age 8 years and over
