Bacterial painting laboratory

Get ready for a science and art experience. Guided by a team of researchers, visitors will be able to work with specialized microtools as scientists. They will watch the process of transforming a tiny bacterium into a vibrant ecological paint. Millions of live bacteria will be waiting for you on ice to transform them into paintings you have never seen before!
