Join us this summer and step into the footsteps of Charles Darwin, grandson of Erasmus as intrepid explorers are invited to explore the mystery and wonder of the famous Archipelago. Darwin helped to put the Islands on the map with his publication ‘On the Origin of Species’.
Discover the Galapagos Islands through the work of the Galapagos Conservation Trust in a special summer exhibition – and explore how current ground-breaking scientific research is helping to conserve its iconic species.
Find out about exciting bilingual, online education resource ‘Discovering Galapagos’. This comprehensive resource explores the uniqueness and fragility of the Galapagos Archipelago in an innovative and dynamic way. Providing direct links to the curriculum both in the UK and Ecuador in Science and Geography, students are taking on a journey of discovery.
The exhibition is suitable for all ages – from a visual journey through images of the Islands, scientific explorations and adventures, to exciting art and craft activities for our younger audience.
We look forward to welcoming all intrepid explorers!
Admission free. The exhibition runs from Saturday 29 July – Sunday 3 September.
