About our events

For over 30 years, we’ve been hosting some of the Bay Area’s coolest, most unique, and somewhat strange workshops and classes. There aren’t a ton of other places that teach you how to build a carnivorous plant terrarium or make your own rat taxidermy riding a triceratops (that was a cool one), and we’re stoked that we’ve been able to do this for so long. There are few things better than a gathering of artists, naturalists, and connoisseurs of the curious, and you’ll find all of those and more at one of our workshops.

Above, you’ll find everything from insect spreading classes to taxidermy raccoon head workshops. It’s an absolute pleasure to put on these events, and we’d love for you to take one yourself.
