# Event Details - **Event Name**: Agar art 2.0: casting with sculptural forms for microbial art - **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 21 Feb, 2026 at 11:00 am – Sat, 21 Feb, 2026 at 02:00 pm - **Event Description**: Make agar sculptures and paint with bacteria! Learn BioArt techniques and take home your own living artwork.About this EventIn this hands-on workshop, we’ll break out of the Petri dish and bring biology into three dimensions. You’ll learn how to sculpt with agar using molds made from alginate and then paint your creations with colorful living bacteria.We’ll begin by making molds from small objects (you’re welcome to bring your own item - no larger than an egg!). Using those molds, you'll cast your design in agar, then apply pigmented bacteria as your paint. As your sculpture incubates and grows, it will transform into a living work of art.Each participant will leave with their own living sculpture to continue observing at home. https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events8/banners/324216a0-e813-11f0-9c1b-87e481b47494-rimg-w1200-h563-dcffffff-gmir.jpg Meet the Instructor Nikki Romanello (she/her) was born and raised in Texas.
