In this workshop, we’ll explore their variously shaped weathering patterns resulting in nature’s works of art, representing both sedimentary, igneous and metamorphic processes.
We’ll also dig into the history behind these silent historical storytellers; prehistoric people fashioned rocks for their tools, implements and music instruments, while early pioneers also constructed their beehive-shaped rock dwellings (korbeelhuise) from local rocks in the Fraserburg-Williston area. You’ll have the opportunity to engage with rocks from the younger limestone formations as well as the volcanic ultramafic lavas a billion years of age. This is your chance to experience Babylonstoren’s rock collection up close, guided by experts Ernst van Jaarsveld and Willem Pretorius.
Steaming coffee from the Lekker Room is served upon arrival.
Lunch in the Greenhouse is included.
Presented by Ernst van Jaarsveld & Willem Pretorius
