Science Saturdays

The Hormel Institute is proud to offer Science Saturdays several times throughout the year to inspire the next generation of scientists.  This is an opportunity for learners of all ages to conduct a short experiment alongside a scientist from the Hormel Institute. All materials and supplies are provided at no cost! Experiment demonstrations begin at 11 a.m., 11:30, noon and 12:30 p.m. 

Next Dates: TBD

Art of Microscopy

“The Art of Microscopy” art exhibit can be found in the hallways of Riverland Community College in Austin. These art pieces serve as not only a way to showcase the work being done at The Hormel Institute, but also to educate those who walk by them to know what these various images look like under a microscope.

Bring the magic of microscopy to your own neighborhood: Thirteen additional images are available to be checked out as a traveling exhibit for display around the region upon request.  Email [email protected] for more information.
