Adult Facial Reconstruction Workshop Evenings
These relaxed, hands-on workshops explore how faces can be reconstructed from skeletal remains using a combination of anatomy, osteology, forensic science, archaeology and artistic interpretation.
Perfect for anyone interested in:
- anatomy and bones
- archaeology and history
- forensic science
- museums and conservation
- art and sculpture
- true crime and investigations
- or simply learning something fascinating and different
No previous experience is needed, just curiosity and an open mind.
During the evening we’ll explore, through a short presentation and guided discussion:
- how skulls help shape a face
- tissue depth and facial structure
- the history and science behind reconstruction
- how experts rebuild faces from skeletal remains
- fascinating real-world examples and case studies
Expect a relaxed atmosphere, small group sizes, plenty of tea and coffee, biscuits and lots of opportunity for questions and conversation throughout the evening.
