Facial Reconstruction 25th July

Facial Reconstruction Workshop

Following a huge amount of interest, Bugs, Bones & Botany CIC is excited to announce another adult Facial Reconstruction Workshop evening.

This session will take place in the cosy, creative surroundings of Space Lab, a pottery studio tucked away off Lynch Lane in Weymouth.

These relaxed, hands-on workshops explore how faces can be reconstructed from skeletal remains using a combination of anatomy, osteology, forensic science, archaeology and artistic interpretation.

Perfect for anyone interested in:

• anatomy and bones
• archaeology and history
• forensic science
• museums and conservation
• art and sculpture
• true crime and investigations
• or simply learning something fascinating and different

No previous experience is needed, just curiosity and an open mind.

During the evening we’ll explore, through a short presentation and guided discussion:

• how skulls help shape a face
• tissue depth and facial structure
• the history and science behind reconstruction
• how experts rebuild faces from skeletal remains
• fascinating real-world examples and case studies

Expect a relaxed atmosphere, small group sizes, plenty of tea and coffee, biscuits and lots of opportunity for questions and conversation throughout the evening.
