Catch a Falling Star: A Micro Meteorite & Sparkle Workshop with Artist Emily Parsons-Lord

Join us for a hands-on journey that begins in the cosmos and ends in your palm. In this workshop, you’ll learn how to hunt for micro meteorites—tiny pieces of space dust that have fallen to Earth—and discover how to find them right here in your local environment. They are closer to home than you might think. Examine your celestial finds under a microscope, then transform them into tiny hand-held fireworks. Watch as they flare into light and heat—dust becoming star again, right before your eyes. 

A workshop for families, dreamers, and anyone curious about the universe above and beneath their feet.

Walk away with a digital moving portrait of your findings.
