Event Details

See the world differently these July school holidays.

Explore how lenses and optics shape the way we see everything around us.

Make your own 3D glasses, draw an anaglyph image and see the world of MOTAT in 3D. Experiment with mirrors, black panels and reflective surfaces on a large-scale light installation that tells the story of Ranginui and Papatūānuku. Then get up close with flora and fauna through a range of lenses and microscopes — you might be surprised what you find. Plus so much more.

Join MOTAT for a holiday filled with discovery and hands-on fun and see how important lenses and optics play a part in our world.
