unique opportunities for smart creative people to study the natural world.
It's our pleasure to offer online classes so you can safely participate from home.
We look forward to resuming field expeditions in the future.

Our online residencies are 2-weeklong, action packed, thematic courses for practicing artists.
Our Wednesday Webinars are single evening classes on wildlife and art tailored for artists but accessible to everyone.
Current topics include: conservation, non-human intelligence and communication, invasive species, symbiosis, mycology, death and the science of color.

The Biophilium’s goal is to support the conceptual development of contemporary art and to facilitate conversation between scientists, artists and thinkers of all kinds. Together we meet experts, peek behind the scenes and ask questions about the nature of ecology. We hope to help artist direct the attentions of their audiences to the natural world. |
