Folk Fae Fife

Folk Fae Fife

Coming to a school, college, university or even in the street, from March to December we are running a series of events to celebrate science and its achievements across Fife.

 

Our launch event took place in the Physics and Astronomy Building on the North Haugh at the University of St. Andrews on March 13th. Almost 500 visitors enjoyed a range of hands-on activities and demonstrations that illustrated the wow-factor of science!

 

The Bell Pettigrew Museum of Natural History was founded, and most specimens acquired, during the heyday of the Victorian age, when collecting was all the rage. Most towns and cities had a museum similar to this one, with many specimens displayed in a relatively small space. Although this museum has been altered and updated on occasion, it retains its original feel - the entire museum, with its original cases, and superb mosaic floor, is a valuable survivor from a bygone age. The museum is open to the public on various dates during the summer months.
