CoLab Exhibition

Opens 01-08-2024,  closes 18-08-2024

CoLab Exhibition, 1 – 18 August 2024

Observe an Artistic Experiment.  What happens when you pair research scientists with Year 9-12 school art students, with the goal of inspiring new artworks that communicate scientific concepts and ideas? Head along to the CoLab exhibition to find out!

Through Beaker Street’s CoLab initiative, students from the Hobart Big Picture School and Hobart City High School work directly with the scientists over a period of a few months, including visiting their labs or field sites, and then create an artwork inspired by the scientific research. As well as being an awesome educational experience, the project generates an innovating and engaging form of scientific outreach through the arts.
