Pigments, Pollinators, and Plant Potions!

Presented by Georgia State University - Newton, Jewels Morgans

Step into the colorful, fragrant world of plants! Discover how sunlight fuels life through photosynthesis, how flowers use scent to invite pollinators, and create your very own artwork using natural plant pigments. You’ll even take home a little vial of hydrosol you helped make, a fragrant reminder of your journey into plant chemistry.
Through friendly, hands-on activities, small-group explorations, and playful demonstrations, you’ll:
• Watch steam distillation in action and learn how essential oils and hydrosols are made
• Paint with plant pigments inspired by nature’s palette
• Take home your artwork and fragrant hydrosol to enjoy at home


Perfect for curious minds of all ages (3+), this session blends science, art, and nature in a fun, unforgettable experience. Come explore, create, and connect with the magic of plants!
