Visitors will be able to feel the skin, teeth, jaws and cartilage of sharks, examine fish bones, and take a close look at different types of fish scales. Accompanying drawings and signs deftly explain scientific concepts, and offer a chance to test your knowledge of present-day fishes. Scary Fishes from Deep Time is supported in part by Community Health Plan of Washington, STAR 101.5, Northwest Parent Publishing, Horizon Foundation, the College of Oceans and Fisheries Science, and the Burke Directors Annual Appeal Donors. Admission is free for children 5 and under, members, and UW staff, faculty and students. There will also be cool Archigram temporary tattoos, music, refreshments, a hands-on open studio project and more.
Sixties attire is welcome.
