Learn something new at the Beaty Biodiversity Museum! Join our interpreters during a weekly virtual tour, focusing on a topic of their choice. It will always be a surprise! We may walk through the museum together, showcase specimens in the lab, and/or show some great museum video and photos. We will always do our best to answer your questions. Expect a wide variety of stories that may include museum history, evolution, ecology, local diversity, biodiversity basics, and UBC Biodiversity Research.
This virtual tour with a museum interpreter is recommended for visitors of all ages! If your child hasn’t used zoom before, or needs help with typing, occasional support from an adult or older sibling may be helpful. We are offering the tours live on zoom only, today’s tour will be recorded for internal use only. You can watch previously recorded sessions on the Beaty Museum’s facebook page or YouTube Playlist. We encourage participants to be on video and ask questions out loud, just like we were on a tour together!
