Join us for a nocturnal walk with mycologist and photographer Alan Rockefeller. We will explore an area in central Austin with UV flashlights to look for night pollinators, glowing plants, fungus, lichens and more. Get creative with glowing outfits to see in the UV light.
You can purchase a UV flashlight for $20 from us and pick-up at the event.
Tickets are limited and are $15 for members and $35 for non-member. Family friendly. Kids under 12 are always free.
Sign-up for a membership to get discounts on workshops, walks, and mycology related events.
