SUMMARY:Beyond Your Senses
DESCRIPTION:$20 member / $35 nonmember (per person)Instructor: Kelsey LowAges 12 and up \n\n\n\nThere’s a whole world beyond the reach of human senses: ultraviolet\, infrared\, ultrasound… Discover the hidden signals that are undetectable to us\, but part of everyday life for non-human animals. In this hands-on class we’ll use blacklights to discover how “dull” birds really shine\, special microphones to eavesdrop on bats\, and even test strips to determine if any of us have a super-human sense of taste!  \n\n\n\n\nClass is no longer available. Click here for more adult programming!\n\n\n\n\nPlease dress for the weather and wear close-toed shoes.
