Forget Shark Week! Bee Week is taking over the Hammer starting this Sunday as part of the Breath(e) exhibition program series, featuring bee talks, honey tastings and screenings.
Not only can you check in on the progress of the live hive creating a new work, in partnership with sculptor Garnett Puett (a truly unique and oddly meditative site to behold!), but you can also view a screening of the film “Microcosmos” this Sunday morning, and then learn about the skills required in macrophotography in a bee-focused, hands-on workshop with conservation photographer Krystle Hickman in the afternoon. On site throughout the week will be resident beekeeper extraordinaire Joe O’Brian who will teach visitors all about honey bees, varieties of honey as well as bee and plant species that are native to California.
