SUMMARY:Introduction to Sunset Moth Preservation with Mickey Alice Kwapis
DESCRIPTION:Introduction to Specimen Preservation with Mickey Alice Kwapis: Sunset Moths \n \nLearn how to spread and dry your own sunset moth specimen to keep. Using a rehydrated specimen ready to spread\, each student will be guided through the process of flexing\, posing\, pinning\, and drying their own moth specimen. This incredible insect\, native to Madagascar\, is a day-flying moth with structural colors that catch the light to appear as an iridescent rainbow. You will leave with your finished pinned specimen ready to dry at home\, as well as a spreading board and tool set to keep for use with future projects. The week following the workshop\, students will receive an email containing a digital guide to the entire spreading process\, from a dried or freshly deceased specimen to completion. \nNo experience necessary; ages 12 and younger must be accompanied by a calm adult who can assist where needed. One specimen and tool set are provided per ticket purchased\, so if the adult wishes to participate with their own specimen set\, an additional ticket should be purchased. \nClass registration fees include admission to the Whatcom Museum\, one specimen and tool kit\, and supplementary reading materials to learn how to repeat the process with more specimens at home. \nMickey will also be teaching a forest scorpion specimen preservation workshop on March 14.

SUMMARY:Introduction to Forest Scorpion Preservation with Mickey Alice Kwapis
DESCRIPTION:Introduction to Specimen Preservation with Mickey Alice Kwapis: Forest Scorpions \n \nLearn how to spread and dry your own forest scorpion specimen to keep. Using a rehydrated specimen ready to spread\, each student will be guided through the process of flexing\, posing\, pinning\, and drying their own scorpion specimen. This incredible arachnid is native to Thailand and uses its pincers more than its tail to inflict damage to its prey. You will leave with your finished pinned specimen ready to dry at home as well as a spreading board and tool set to keep for use with future projects. The week following the workshop\, students will receive an email containing a digital guide to the entire spreading process\, from a dried or freshly deceased specimen to completion. \nNo experience necessary; ages 12 and younger must be accompanied by a calm adult who can assist where needed.
