The Art of Musical Science with Jared Tailfeathers

Join us at Esker for this hands-on workshop led by Jared Tailfeathers, inspired by their current exhibition The Visitors.

Be prepared to use tools and your imagination to build and decorate two unique, playable instruments, and learn about the science of sound.
