Stories in Stone
Exhibit Workshop

From earthquakes to erosion, weathering, deposition and tectonic plate movements, get up close and hands-on with the how the ground beneath our feet has changed over time. Gain a deep understanding of the rock cycle as we uncover the "stories" behind how rocks were formed.
