SUMMARY:Mississippi Muse: River Geology and Wild Clay
DESCRIPTION:The Mississippi Muse series explores different aspects of the Mississippi River through a scientific and creative lens. Visualize and discover the earth’s processes that have shaped the river through this hands-on workshop. Explore the riverbed for evidence of geological history\, then unearth some “wild clay” (natural clay deposits from the earth). Learn how to process and refine this clay into something more workable\, then use it to build a simple form.

SUMMARY:National Mississippi River Day
