Paint your own fossil
About
Paint you own fossil will take place on the ground floor of the Boole Library, UCC.
Palaeontologists from Ireland’s Fossil Heritage will be running a family event at UCC's Boole Library where you can paint your own 3D printed fossil while learning all about the fossils that are found in Ireland. Ireland’s Fossil Heritage is a public engagement project based at the School of Biological Earth and Environmental Sciences at UCC, funded by Science Foundation Ireland. Parents can browse our photo exhibit – Irish Fossils Hidden Treasures – which will be on display in the same area, while the kids paint their fossils. The event will run from 4 – 6 pm on a first come first served basis. All participants will be able to take their painted 3D fossil home with them.
