Join us for a member-exclusive, in-person and virtual presentation of Peek Behind the Petals which will give a behind the scenes look at how Phipps made its immersive Tropical Forest Panama exhibit come to life. Phipps Director of Horticulture Ben Dunigan will share insights about his research trip to Panama, the process behind designing the exhibit and more.
The Tropical Forest Conservatory is a multilevel exhibit combining educational enrichment with lush tropical forest flora that features a different region every three years. Follow along with our Tropical Forest blog to learn more about our journey to Panama, the research we collected and the wildlife we visited.
Peek Behind the Petals is on Sat., Jan. 25 and runs from 10 – 11 a.m. and can be attended either virtually through Zoom or in-person at Phipps Botany Hall Lecture. Registrants attending virtually will be sent a zoom link upon registration.
