Are you fascinated by robots? Intrigued by bugs? How about ROBOT BUGS?
Join us for Bug Day on Saturday 14 February at Tūhura Otago Museum and learn how to build a bristlebot with experts from the University of Otago Neuroscience Programme!
Bristlebots are fun, simple walking robots made from basic materials. In this hands-on workshop, you'll create and decorate your very own bristlebot, which you can take home after the session. All materials are provided.
Don’t miss out on this exciting opportunity to explore the world of robotics and bugs! This activity is part of our Bug Day event – you can check out all the other fun things we have planned here.
Space is limited, so booking is recommended. Children under 14 must be accompanied by a supervising adult.
