Opportunities for Outreach & Volunteering in the Botanic Garden
There is a regular calendar of events at the Gardens, starting with the Sculpture Festival at Easter, the Festival of Plants in the early summer and the Pollination Festival in September.
These events attract a substantial number of visitors and provide a good occasion to showcase research. Other, more bespoke events are possible too, for example the Bristol Vision Institute worked with Sculptor Luke Jerram to run a five month long exhibition of sculptures at the Botanic Gardens which you can read about here!
To find out more about the possibilities for outreach or to start planning an event, please fill out the form Outreach application (Office document, 49kB) and email it to sci-director-botanic-gardens@bristol.ac.uk.
